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

BACKGROUND/

aimTrabectedin is a synthetic antineoplastic agent approved for advanced soft tissue sarcoma (STS) in Japan. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Japan-approved dose of trabectedin for advanced STS. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 38 patients with advanced STS who received salvage chemotherapy with trabectedin.

resultsThe overall response and disease control rates were 16% (5 patients) and 67% (20 patients), respectively. The median progression-free and overall survival were 7.3 and 17.8 months, respectively. There were no significant differences between patients with liposarcoma or leiomyosarcoma and those without, or between patients with TRS and those without. The most common grade 3-4 AEs were elevated transaminases and neutropenia.

conclusionTrabectedin 1.2 mg/m
