Modification of Platinum-based Systemic Chemotherapy for Advanced Urothelial Carcinoma in Patients With Suboptimal Renal Function.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimStandard chemotherapy for advanced urothelial carcinoma (UC) patients with moderate renal dysfunction has not yet been established. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe retrospectively assessed outcomes of patients with advanced UC who underwent first-line chemotherapy with full-/reduced-dose gemcitabine plus cisplatin (GC-f/GC-r) or full-/reduced-dose gemcitabine plus carboplatin (G-Car-f/G-Car-r) according to renal function.
resultsSeventy-eight patients were included in this study. The objective response rate was 42%, 30%, 42%, and 27% for the GC-f, GC-r, G-Car-f, and G-Car-r groups, respectively. For the GC-r and G-Car-f groups, the median progression-free survival and the median overall survival was 4.5 vs. 7.0 months (p=0.07) and 7.5 months vs. 12.0 months (p=0.124), respectively. Grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia occurred more frequently in the GC-r group than the G-Car-f group (80% vs. 38%, p=0.021).
conclusionG-Car-f could be more beneficial than GC-r for patients with advanced UC who have moderate renal dysfunction.
