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

backgroundTo investigate the guidance selection of docetaxel (D), cisplatin (DDP) (C), and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (F) as individual chemotherapy agents via joint detection of ERCC1, TUBB3, and TYMS genes in patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC).

methodClinical data of 120 patients with AGC who enrolled in our hospital between May 2009 and May 2012 were analyzed. These patients were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The mRNA expression of ERCC1, TUBB3, and TYMS was measured by DNA chip technology in the experimental group. Different chemotherapies were administered according to the mRNA expression levels of the three genes, while DCF chemotherapy was directly applied to the control group. Correlation between the three genes' mRNA levels, efficiency rate, the median time to progression (MTP), median survival time (MST) and adverse reactions was evaluated.

resultsAs a result, there was a significant correlation between ERCC1 and TUBB3 mRNA expression (P = 0.005), but no obvious correlation between TUBB3 and TYMS or ERCC1 and TYMS. There was also no significant difference in the efficiency rate of chemotherapy (50% versus 55%; P = 0.357) and the MTP (10 months versus 7 months; P = 0.091) between the two groups. However, there was obvious significance in MST (13.7 months versus 11.6 months; P = 0.004). Additionally, the experimental group provided us with a more effective way for controlling adverse reactions to chemotherapy.

conclusionCombination regimen of D, C, and F in AGC patients according to their ERCC1, TUBB3, and TYMS mRNA expression level may reduce adverse reactions and improve MST.
