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 COVID-19 global pandemic has drastically affected the health care facility worldwide, posing unprecedented challenges in front of the caregivers. All hospitals need adopt measures to protect patients and health professionals and to safely triage patients (according to country/regional directives) for identifying those infected with coronavirus. As very few guidelines are available for care of cancer patients during COVID times, institutes have had to make their own strategies, based on their own expertise keeping in mind local directives and their effect on available resources and routine processes to offer best possible care. In this article, we have discussed in-house protocols for modification and prioritization of radical and palliative multimodality treatment of cancer patients along with our infection control measures in accordance with national and local guidelines during COVID emergency to stay safe and health. Also, the current study aims to modify cancer treatment and care during the COVID-19 pandemic adhering and fulfilling all protective measures.
