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

backgroundBreast cancer (BC) has the highest morbidity and the fifth-highest mortality rate among women in China. Peritoneal metastases from BC are rare, and presently, there are no guidelines or international consensus on its treatment. Patients with a prognosis of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) have poorer survival rates than patients with other regional metastases from BC.

methodsFour BC PC patients, who had undergone cytoreductive surgery (CRS) + hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), participated in this study. Clinicopathologic characteristics and overall survival (OS) data were collected and analyzed.

resultsPatients' average age when they underwent CRS + HIPEC was 59.8 years. The average time of CRS + HIPEC was 8.8 h. The median number of resected organ areas was 7. Following CRS + HIPEC, each of the 4 patients survived for 31, 28, 16 and 52 months, respectively. There were no serious adverse events during the perioperative period.

conclusionsThe study examined the detailed process of CRS + HIPEC and found that patients with BC PC may benefit from this treatment. The 4 cases provided evidence that the integrated therapy of CRS + HIPEC is a promising strategy that could improve outcomes for BC PC patients. Further, no serious adverse events (SAEs) occurred during the CRS + HIPEC perioperative period.
