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

introductionDesmoid tumors (DT) are rare collagen-forming tumors that can exhibit locally aggressive patterns of behavior. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of treatment of DT with single-agent oral vinorelbine. MATERIALS AND

methodsA retrospective review of patients treated with vinorelbine 90 mg orally on days 1, 8, and 15 of a 28-day cycle from January 2004 to July 2019 was performed. Response was assessed using RECIST version 1.1. Descriptive statistics were employed.

resultsA total of 29 patients were included. Response rate was 20.7% (6/29), and clinical benefit rate (response by RECIST 1.1 and/or clinical symptom improvement) was 65.5% (19/29). No patient experienced grade 3 or above toxicity. Common toxicities were grade 1-2 nausea (14/26, 48.3%), fatigue (9/26, 31.0%), and diarrhea (4/26, 13.8%).

conclusionSingle-agent oral vinorelbine is an effective, safe, and well-tolerated treatment for DT. It represents a new oral alternative for management of DT.
