1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundAdvanced colorectal cancer (CRC) is prone to developing peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). This case-control study was to compare the efficacy and safety of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) versus CRS plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in Chinese patients with CRC PC.

methodsThe 62 consecutive PC patients were treated with CRS (Control group, n = 29) or CRS + HIPEC (Study group, n = 33). The primary end point was overall survival (OS), the secondary end points were perioperative safety profiles.

resultsFor the comparison of Control versus Study groups, the peritoneal cancer index (PCI) ≤20 was 13 (44.8%) versus 16 (48.5%) patients (P = 0.78), complete cytoreduction (CC0-1) was achieved in 9 (31.0%) versus 14 (42.4%) cases (P = 0.36). At the median OS was 8.5 (95% confidence interval [CI] 4.7-12.4) versus 13.7 (95% CI 10.0-16.5) months (P = 0.02), the 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 27.5% versus 63.6%, 12.0% versus 20.0%, and 0.0% versus 16.0%, respectively. Serious adverse events in postoperative 30 days were 9.4% versus 28.6% (P = 0.11). Multivariate analysis revealed that CRS + HIPEC, CC0-1, adjuvant chemotherapy ≥6 cycles were independent factors for OS benefit.

conclusionCRS + HIPEC could improve OS for CRC PC patients, with acceptable perioperative safety.
