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

Colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) receive their blood supply predominantly through the hepatic artery. Intra-arterial drug delivery can optimize the dose and time exposure of chemotherapy to tumor cells while limiting systemic toxicity. Chemotherapy is most commonly administered through a catheter surgically placed in the gastroduodenal artery and connected to a subcutaneous pump. Due to its pharmacokinetics features, floxuridine is the most commonly used drug in the USA with hepatic arterial infusional (HAI) chemotherapy. To date, many clinical trials have shown the positive impact of HAI in the management of CRLM. Hence, in unresectable patients, HAI is associated with high response rates and commonly enables subsequent resection in both chemonaive and previously treated patients. Outcomes in patients converted to complete resection are similar to patients who present with initially resectable disease. In the adjuvant setting, HAI with floxuridine improves survival as well as hepatic and overall disease-free survival after complete resection of CRLM, as compared with 5-FU alone, in three of four randomized studies. To date, no trials have compared HAI combined with modern chemotherapy alone to modern chemotherapy alone in the adjuvant setting.
