Fruquintinib beneficial in elderly patient with neoplastic pericardial effusion from rectal cancer: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundNeoplastic pericardial effusion (NPE) is a rare consequence of rectal cancer and carries a poor prognosis. Optimal management has yet to be determined. Fruquintinib is an oral anti-vascular endothelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor approved by the China Food and Drug Administration in September 2018 as third-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer. CASE SUMMARY: Herein, we report an elderly patient with NPE from rectal cancer who responded to the use of fruquintinib. In March 2015, a 65-year-old Chinese woman diagnosed with KRAS-mutated adenocarcinoma of the rectum was subjected to proctectomy, adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy, and adjuvant chemotherapy. By October 2018, a mediastinal mass was detected
conclusionFruquintinib may confer good survival benefit in elderly patients with NPEs due to rectal cancer.
