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

purposeThe aim of this study was to systematically review the literature on the influence of oxaliplatin administration (e.g. cumulative dose, dose intensity, number of cycles and combination regimen) on the long-term prevalence of oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (O-IPN) at least 12 months after termination of chemotherapy.

methodsA computerized search of literature on databases PubMed and Cochrane was performed. Published original articles were included if they reported about long-term O-IPN and gave concomitant information about oxaliplatin therapy given to the patients. All articles were assessed for quality.

resultsWe included 14 articles (n=3,869 patients), and the majority of these studies were of high quality. All included patients who were treated for colorectal cancer, mainly with oxaliplatin in combination with 5-fluorouracil/leucovorin. Median cumulative doses and dose intensity varied between 676 and 1,449 mg/m2 and 30.8 and 42.6 mg/m2/week, respectively. Neuropathy assessment differed between studies, and the National Cancer Institute-Common Terminology Criteria (NCI-CTC) was used most often. The degree of neuropathy ranged from grade 0 to 3. Only six studies directly assessed the relationship between oxaliplatin administration and neuropathy. Of these studies, five did find a relation between neuropathy and higher cumulative dose, while one study did not find a relation.

conclusionsO-IPN is still present in a great amount of patients in ≥12 months after termination of therapy. A higher cumulative dose is likely to have an influence on the development of long-term O-IPN. More studies are needed that assess long-term neuropathy and oxaliplatin administration by means of validated neuropathy assessments.
