Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy combined with systemic chemotherapy for gastric cancer peritoneal carcinomatosis: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThe prognosis of gastric cancer peritoneal carcinomatosis (GCPC) remains poor despite recent advances in systemic chemotherapy (SC) with an average survival less than 6 months. Current evidence supporting the utility of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) combined with SC for GCPC is limited. We plan to provide a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to evaluate the comparative effects and safety of HIPEC combined with SC in the management of GCPC.
methodsRandomized controlled trials evaluating HIPEC combined with SC versus SC as first-line treatment for GCPC will be searched in MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and Google Scholar, from database inception to April 30, 2020. Data on study design, participant characteristics, intervention details, and outcomes will be extracted. Primary outcomes to be assessed are: median progression-free survival; secondary outcomes are: median survival time, 1- year survival rate, 2-year survival rate, objective response rate, and adverse events. Meta-analysis will be performed using RevMan V.5.3 statistical software. Data will be combined with a random effect model. Study quality will be assessed using the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. Heterogeneity will be assessed, and if necessary, a subgroup analysis will be performed to explore the source of heterogeneity.
resultsThe results will provide useful information about the effectiveness and safety of HIPEC combined with systemic chemotherapy regimens in patients with gastric cancer peritoneal carcinomatosis.
conclusionThe findings of the study will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journal. THE REGISTRATION NUMBER: INPLASY202050006. DOI NUMBER: 10.37766/inplasy2020.5.0006.
