Positioning high-dose radiation in multidisciplinary management of unresectable cholangiocarcinomas: review of current evidence.
Review in Indian journal of gastroenterology : official journal of the Indian Society of Gastroenterology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Cholangiocarcinoma is a rare malignancy of the bile ducts. The current standard of care for unresectable nonmetastatic disease is doublet systemic chemotherapy, which provides a median survival of 11.7 months. Although chemoradiation is a therapeutic option that provides almost equivalent or superior survival, the lack of level I evidence presents a major hurdle in routinely recommending it within multidisciplinary clinics. This mini review presents the current evidence on the use of chemoradiation for unresectable nonmetastatic cholangiocarcinoma and rationale for positioning it within multidisciplinary management of unresectable cholangiocarcinomas.
