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: As small-bowel adenocarcinoma (SBA) is scarce, no standard systemic regimen in metastatic disease has been defined. Objective: To obtain insights into the use and effects of palliative chemotherapy in patients with metastatic SBA in a population-based setting. Methods: Data from the Netherlands Cancer Registry of patients with metastatic SBA between 2007 and 2016 were used ( Results: Palliative chemotherapy was received by 38% of patients ( Conclusion: A minority of patients were treated with palliative chemotherapy. First-line treatment consisted predominantly of oxaliplatin-based combination chemotherapy, whereas second-line treatment was mainly irinotecan-based. Population-based median overall survival for selected patients treated with chemotherapy amounted to nine months.
