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

Chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) is the most important cause of thrombocytopenia in cancer patients. In this paper, I discussed the effect of ABO blood group on CIT in patients with stage III colon cancer. In a pilot study, a total of 131 (72 men, 55 %) eligible patients with stage III colon cancer were divided into two groups according to whether they had CIT. Both groups were compared using demographic, histopathological, and laboratory variables. CIT was detected in 51 (40 %) of 131 patients. The incidence of CIT had a significant increased in patients with 0 blood group compared to other blood groups. It was concluded that the relationship between blood group 0 and the presence of CIT in patients with stage III colon cancer is independent of other study variables (P = 0.035, OR 3.14, 95 % CI 1.16-7.01). In conclusion, I hypothesized that 0 blood group may predict to differentiate high-risk patients for CIT.
