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

backgroundPoorly Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma (PDTC), especially advanced PDTC, is an aggressive disease and displays a much poorer prognosis compared with well differentiated thyroid carcinoma. Surgery is the recommended treatment in the early stage of PDTC, however, no effective treatment modalities are currently available for advanced PDTCMethods: Two advanced PDTC patients with no radioiodine uptake adopted a cytotoxic chemotherapy with liposomal doxorubicin (35 mg/m(2), day 1) plus cisplatin (75 mg/m(2), day1-3) every 3 weeks. Computer tomography (CT) was performed after 6 cycles (case 1) or 5 cycles (case 2) of chemotherapy

resultsOur patients achieved remarkable response with one a Complete Remission (CR) and the other a very good Partial Remission (PR)Conclusion: Our findings indicate that liposomal doxorubicin-based chemotherapy regimens might produce response in PDTC patients, and improve their overall survival and quality of life. Hence we believe this result is very important for oncologists in treating PDTC.
