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

The occurrence of cancer during pregnancy is observed in 1 in 1000 pregnancies and is expected to increase given the trend of delaying childbearing. While breast cancer is the most common, the incidence of other cancers, such as cervical, ovarian, and lung cancers as well as hemopathies and melanomas, is also increasing. Thus, cancer occurrence in pregnant women raises questions of management during pregnancy and, especially, assessment of the treatment benefit-risk ratio to ensure optimal management for the mother while ensuring the safety of the fetus. Chemotherapy remains a cornerstone of cancer management. If the use of anticancer agents appears possible during pregnancy, while avoiding the first trimester, the extent of placental transfer of different anticancer agents varies considerably thereafter. Furthermore, the significant physiological pharmacokinetic variations observed in pregnant women may have an impact on the placental transfer of anticancer agents. Given the complexity of predicting placental transfer of anticancer agents, preclinical studies are therefore mandatory. The aim of this review was to provide updated data on in vivo and ex vivo transplacental transfer of anticancer agents used in the management of the most common pregnancy-associated cancers to better manage these highly complex cases.
