Encouraging Early Outcomes of Treatment With Arsenic Trioxide Combined With Chemotherapy for Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma in Children: 4 Case Reports.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2021. 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
backgroundAlveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) is a subtype of rhabdomyosarcoma characterized by its aggressive behavior and poor prognosis, highlighting the need for novel treatment options. Arsenic trioxide (ATO) has been shown to specifically inhibit tumor growth and the metastasis of ARMS
methodsWe designed a therapeutic schedule of an ATO-combined chemotherapy, incorporating comprehensive management according to the Intergroup Rhabdomyosarcoma Study Group protocol. ATO was administered at 0.16 mg/kg per day over 8 h
resultsA total of three refractory/recurrent and one untreated ARMS patient, three male and one female, with a median age of 5.8 years (range, 5.1 to 12.5 years), were enrolled in the present study. All patients were sensitive to combined chemotherapy with ATO and achieved partial or complete remission during treatment. Except for reversible gastrointestinal reaction and myelosuppression, no other adverse events were observed during the process of treatment.
conclusionsThe combined chemotherapy of ATO and the VAC regimen exhibited beneficial activities against ARMS in pediatrics and was well tolerated, but prospective large-scale clinical trials are warranted to determine the long-term efficacy, optimal courses, and late toxicity in this population.
