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

Everolimus is an mTOR (the mammalian target of rapamycin) inhibitor, which is used for the treatment of advanced renal cell carcinoma. Life-threatening hemorrhages are extremely rare adverse effect of everolimus. We herein report a successfully treated case of severe everolimus-related gastrointestinal hemorrhage by emergency surgical resection for patient with advanced renal cell carcinoma. A 72-year-old male was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma, for which everolimus was administered after unsuccessful treatment with sunitinib and sorafenib. The patient suddenly developed hematemesis 4 weeks after administration. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy showed gastric antral vascular ectasia. Once the hemorrhage was successfully cauterized by argon plasma coagulation, everolimus was discontinued. However, the patient after re-administration of everolimus developed hematemesis again and exhibited hemorrhage shock. Since therapeutic endoscopy could not achieve hemostasis, the patient underwent emergency distal gastrectomy with Billroth I reconstruction. The patient's vital signs and hemoglobin level stabilized after the surgery. Thereafter, the patient made a satisfactory recovery, and was discharged on postoperative day 10.
