Concurrent Chemoradiation With 5-Fluorouracil and Mitomycin in Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Rectum.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Rectal carcinoma-squamous type is infrequently seen. Etiopathogenesis, prognosis, and therapeutic management of rectal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) are not clearly defined. Rectal SCC is now approached with definitive upfront chemoradiotherapy (CRT), with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and mitomycin with a goal to avoid surgery. However, its management is planned based on histology features regardless of the localization of SCC rectal cancer. We present a case of a 47-year-old Caucasian female with rectal SCC who is under remission for two years after being treated with upfront chemoradiation with mitomycin and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU).
