Bidirectional chemotherapy in patients with gastric cancer and peritoneal metastasis.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Gastric cancer is a lethal malignancy due to the combination of late-stage presentation, propensity for early metastasis, and lack of effective systemic therapies. Given the high rates of gastric peritoneal metastasis, both macro- and microscopic, regional therapy represents both an attractive and rational treatment option for patients given its success in other peritoneal surface malignancies. Bidirectional chemotherapy (intraperitoneal and intravenous) for treatment of metastatic gastric cancer has not been evaluated prospectively in a contemporary North American cohort. Here we present the rationale and design of a phase II clinical trial of intraperitoneal paclitaxel in combination with intravenous paclitaxel and oral capecitabine. We hypothesize that the combination of systemic and regional chemotherapy may result in improved progression free survival (PFS) for patients with gastric adenocarcinoma and peritoneal-only metastasis. In addition to studying clinical outcomes associated with this treatment regimen, both basic and translational science efforts are planned to better understand this complex malignancy.
