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

backgroundWe conducted a nationwide survey on chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) in Japan and demonstrated good compliance with Japanese CINV guidelines, resulting in good control of vomiting. However, almost half the patients experienced breakthrough CINV. We analyzed the survey results in relationship to the management of patients with breakthrough CINV.

methodsThis multicenter, prospective, observational study analyzed data for 1910 patients in Japan scheduled for moderately or highly emetogenic chemotherapy (MEC and HEC, respectively). Patients who developed CINV despite prophylactic use of antiemetics were administered rescue drugs. Patients who received cisplatin-based HEC (C-HEC), non-cisplatin-based HEC (N-HEC), or MEC were evaluated separately.

resultsA total of 989 patients experienced CINV, of whom 412 (44%) received rescue antiemetics during the study period. The rate at which patients with breakthrough CINV were started on rescue drugs ranged from 13% to 24%. Rescue drugs were given more frequently on days 2-4 for C-HEC and MEC and on days 1-2 for N-HEC. Eighty-six percent of patients received metoclopramide or domperidone. 5-HT

conclusionsFewer than half of the patients with breakthrough CINV were treated with rescue antiemetics, suggesting that CINV was mild in the remaining patients. However, CINV was sufficiently severe to prevent eating in other patients, indicating the need for new drugs with different mechanisms to control CINV.
