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

Purpose The current standard treatment for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (LANPC) is intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) plus cisplatin concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). However, this regimen has well-known hematological and gastrointestinal toxicities. Many studies have reported that S-1 was effective in the treatment of multiple solid cancers with mild toxicities. However, knowledge regarding IMRT plus S-1 CCRT in LANPC is lacking. Therefore, we conducted this prospective phase II trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of this regimen in LANPC. Patients and Methods Eligible patients with histologically confirmed LANPC were enrolled in this study. IMRT was given in 30-32 fractions five times per week. Concurrently, S-1 was administrated twice per day orally based on the body surface area (BSA < 1.25 m
