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

objectiveThis study investigated pre- and post-treatment tumor and lymph node dimension response rates and differences between side-effect profiles in patients with locally advanced inoperable nonsmall-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving radiotherapy (RT) and concurrent chemotherapy (CT). MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 30 inoperable patients who had not previously received RT and having a mean age of 58.73±8.65 years with sufficient hematological reserves and normal hepatic and renal functions were included in the study. Those with pleural effusion, supraventricular lymph node metastasis, and N3 lymph node involvement were excluded. Group I (n=15) received a 21-day 75 mg/m

resultsPatients were randomized into Group I receiving RT and concurrent cisplatin-vinorelbine and Group II receiving weekly paclitaxel-carboplatin CT. Pre- and post-treatment tumor and lymph node dimensions significantly differed in both groups (p<0.001 and p<0.01, respectively). No significant change was observed in post-RT tumor and lymph node dimensions in terms of applied CT regimens (p>0.05).

conclusionThe significant response achieved with concurrent RT and CT in groups I and II in the local advanced stage of NSCLC is important for local tumor control. Responses to treatment in the group of two arms did not differ.
