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

Neoadjuvant or perioperative therapy with radical surgery is a meaningful approach to improve the prognosis of gastric cancer. The FLOT regimen (5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, docetaxel) has been established as a perioperative concept in Germany and is also increasingly being used internationally. The prognostic significance of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy has to be awaited based on the results of currently active studies. The microsatellite instability (MSI) status has increasingly gained in importance with respect to decision-making processes in the interdisciplinary tumor board as patients with MSI tumors probably do not benefit from neoadjuvant therapy. Patients with only initial stages of locally advanced MSI tumors (cT2, N0) and those with comorbidities could be spared from neoadjuvant therapy. This article critically deals with the current state of the art concepts as well as with ongoing studies with respect to neoadjuvant and perioperative treatment of gastric cancer. For this purpose, the essential already published and the active studies are presented.
