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

BACKGROUND/

aimTo evaluate the benefits of the addition of oxaliplatin (OX) to fluoropyrimidine (FP)-based neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) for patients with locally advanced rectal cancers (LARCs). PATIENTS AND

methodsWe performed retrospective analyses comparing the pathological complete response (pCR) rate, overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and local recurrence-free survival (LRFS) between FP-based and FP+OX-based CRT groups and for patients who had completed the CRT.

resultsOne hundred patients were included in the analyses: the pCR rate, OS, RFS, and LRFS were similar between these groups. The FP+OX group showed significantly more frequent incompleteness of the CRT compared to the FP group (p=0.049). Among the patients who had completed the CRT, the FP+OX group demonstrated significantly improved LRFS compared to the FP group (p=0.048).

conclusionThe addition of OX to an FP regimen in neoadjuvant CRT for LARC may reduce local recurrence in patients who have achieved good compliance to CRT.
