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

backgroundThe past 20 years have seen advances in colorectal cancer management. We sought to determine whether survival in patients undergoing resection of colorectal liver metastases (CLM) has improved in association with three landmark advances: introduction of irinotecan- and/or oxaliplatin-containing regimens, molecular targeted therapy, and multigene alteration testing.

methodsPatients undergoing CLM resection during 1998-2014 were identified and grouped by resection year. The influence of alterations in RAS, TP53, and SMAD4 was evaluated and validated in an external cohort including patients with unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer.

resultsOf 1961 patients, 1599 met the inclusion criteria. Irinotecan- and/or oxaliplatin-containing regimens and molecular targeted therapy were used for more than 50% of patients starting in 2001 and starting in 2006, respectively, so patients were grouped as undergoing resection during 1998-2000, 2001-2005, or 2006-2014. Liver resectability indications expanded over time. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was significantly better in 2006-2014, vs. 2001-2005 (56.5% vs. 44.1%, P < 0.001). RAS alteration was associated with worse 5-year OS than RAS wild-type (44.8% vs. 63.3%, P < 0.001). However, OS did not differ significantly between patients with RAS alteration and wild-type TP53 and SMAD4 and patients with RAS wild-type in our cohort (P = 0.899) or the external cohort (P = 0.932). Of 312 patients with genetic sequencing data, 178 (57.1%) had clinically actionable alterations.

conclusionOS after CLM resection has improved with advances in medical therapy and surgical technique. Multigene alteration testing is useful for prognostication and identification of potential therapeutic targets.
