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

A 53-year-old woman who was diagnosed as having advanced gallbladder cancer (T3N1M1, Stage IVB) showed a dramatic response to chemotherapy using gemcitabine + cisplatin and surgery with curative intent was attempted. Histopathological examination revealed residual tumor limited to the perimuscular connective tissue of the gallbladder (T2bN0M0, Stage IIB) and a mixture of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) components was confirmed. At 6 months after the surgery, a small peritoneal nodule was detected and chemotherapy was resumed with gemcitabine, cisplatin, and S-1. However, the recurrent lesion showed no response at all and gradually formed a mass with the liver and kidney. Considering the difficulty of intensive chemotherapy and the relatively indolent progression of the disease at 15 months after the recurrence was first detected, repeat resection was performed. Histopathology of the resected lesions revealed only a NEC components. Although surgical intervention may be effective in selected cases, given that the NEC component is often associated with progression and recurrence of the disease, the chemotherapy regimen would need to include drugs for the NEC component in cases where the histopathological diagnosis of MANEC has been established.
