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

The aim was to investigate the clinical efficacy and immunomodulatory effect of lienal polypeptide injection combined with postoperative FOLFOX chemotherapy regimen in colon cancer patients. A total of 84 colon cancer patients were selected between January, 2014 and December, 2015. The selected patients were randomly divided into the observation (42 patients) and control (42 patients) groups. The observation group patients were treated with FOLFOX chemotherapy regimen combined with lienal polypeptide, whereas, the control group patients were treated with FOLFOX chemotherapeutic regimen only. After two cycles of treatment, Karnofsky performance scale (KPS) index, side effects or toxicity and the peripheral blood T-cell subset analyses in the two groups of patients were evaluated. The patients who received FOLFOX chemotherapeutic regimen combined with lienal polypeptide in the observation group showed significantly higher score of KPS than patients of the control group (P<0.05). No significant difference in the spectrum of side effects such as nausea, vomiting, neurotoxicity, liver and kidney dysfunction, oral mucosal inflammation were observed in the treatment groups. However, the incidence of bone marrow suppression was significantly lower in the observation group in comparison with the control group (P<0.05). Additionally, the CD8
