Synthesis in Wiener medizinische Wochenschrift (1946), 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT03210298 (Multicenter, International Online Documentation of Indications and Results of Pressurized IntraPeritoneal Aerosol Chemotherapy), which is not on this map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

Abstract

objectiveThe objective of this study was to provide an overview of published and ongoing trials of pressurized intraperitoneal chemotherapy (PIPAC) in ovarian cancer.

designThe study comprised a systematic literature review.

resultsWe identified 10 studies, including 2 ex vivo and in vitro studies, 6 clinical studies, and 2 ongoing clinical trials using PIPAC in women with recurrent ovarian cancer and pseudomyxoma peritonei. Experimental evidence and clinical study data demonstrate that PIPAC increases peritoneal cavity coverage and depth of peritoneal infiltration, and is technically feasible. Occupational safety has been established. PIPAC has demonstrated antitumor activity based on histological, radiological, and clinical evidence. The toxicity of PIPAC is manageable and restricted to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events grade 2-3 events when used without concomitant cytoreductive surgery. Further clinical trials assessing efficacy and dose escalation are ongoing.

conclusionsPIPAC is technically feasible, has a safe local and systemic safety profile, and has antitumor activity in women with peritoneal carcinomatosis from recurrent ovarian cancer.
