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

backgroundPeritoneal surface malignancy (PSM) was historically associated with a poor survival. The adoption of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) can now offer patients with PSM a favourable overall survival. Here, we report our single-institute outcomes following CRS and HIPEC for PSM and evaluate changes in our practice over time.

methodsThis is a retrospective review from 2009 to 2018 of all patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC for PSM at a statewide peritoneal disease centre. Cases were divided into the first half and second to compare changes in practice over time.

resultsThree hundred and eighty four CRS and HIPEC cases were performed during this time. The median age was 56 years with 59.6% female. The median peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) was 11, with a reduction in PCI in the second cohort (9 v 15, p < 0.01). Complete cytoreduction rates were significantly higher in the second cohort (82.3% v 67.7%, p < 0.01). Overall, grade III/IV complications occurred in 101 cases (26.3%) with three (0.8%) perioperative mortalities. Median overall survival (OS) for the entire cohort was 85 months, with a 5-year survival of 52%. Median OS was 97 months for PMP, 34 months for colorectal peritoneal metastases and 27 months for other histologies. Completeness of cytoreduction, histology type, and PCI were factors independently associated with overall survival.

conclusionCRS and HIPEC can offer highly favourable outcomes for PSM with low morbidity. Successful complete cytoreduction rates improved significantly with greater experience and better patient selection.
