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

Peritoneal carcinomatosis of gastric origin is an aggressive tumor entity. Historically it has been considered a terminal disease with no long-term survival, due to limited therapeutic options. However, as a better understanding of tumor biology has evolved in recent years, novel multimodal treatment strategies incorporating intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy-hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC), neoadjuvant intraperitoneal-systemic chemotherapy protocol (NIPS)-and cytoreductive surgery (CRS) have demonstrated promising oncologic outcomes and even long-term survival in selected patients. Most of the studies published to date are retrospective in nature. These studies involve heterogenous patient populations, a wide variety of chemotherapeutic drugs, and show wide variation in outcomes between institutions. Thus, it is difficult to evaluate the results. This review summarizes our current knowledge regarding IP chemotherapy and CRS for peritoneal metastases (PM) in gastric cancer (GC). We describe our institutional treatment regimens. We also provide a brief overview of new, targeted therapies that may show promise in the future.
