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

opinion statementBiliary tract cancers (BTCs) are a diverse group of malignancies arising from the biliary tree, including cholangiocarcinoma and gallbladder carcinoma. Patients that are candidates for surgical resection should also have lymphadenectomy. Since recurrence rates are high, after surgical resection, patients should be considered for adjuvant therapy in a multidiscipline setting. The limited availability of randomized clinical trial data makes the optimal treatment option unclear; however, chemotherapy or chemoradiation has been shown to have benefits especially in patients with R1 or R2 resections or lymph node involvement. Patients with unresectable disease should be considered for neoadjuvant therapy with chemotherapy or chemoradiation. Patients that are unable to tolerate chemotherapy should also be considered for locoregional therapies. Clinical trial enrollment is strongly recommended for all patients. Trials involving targeted or immunotherapy are currently ongoing in patients with advanced disease.
