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

purposeWe devised a simple dichotomous classification system and showed sufficient reproducibility to indicate treatment strategies for peritoneal metastasis of colorectal cancer.

methodsWe included 67 patients with peritoneal metastasis of colorectal cancer and classified them according to the largest lesion size, number of lesions and number of regional peritoneal metastases. The oncological data were recorded and compared.

resultsAccording to the univariate analyses, the prognoses were significantly better in patients with ≤3 disseminated lesions than in those with ≥4, and in patients with disseminated lesions in only one region than in those with ≥2 lesions. A multivariate analysis showed that primary tumor resection and the presence of peritoneal metastases in only one region were favorable factors for the patient survival. Patients with disseminated lesions in only one region (localized group) and those with nonlocalized lesions had three-year survival rates of 45.6 and 12.2 %, respectively. Finally, primary tumor resection improved the prognoses in both the localized and nonlocalized groups.

conclusionsColorectal cancer patients were categorized into localized and nonlocalized groups according to the number of regions with peritoneal metastasis, and significant prognostic associations were demonstrated. Subsequent analyses of the oncological data suggested that primary tumor resection contributes to an improved prognosis in all patients with synchronous peritoneal metastases.
