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

purposeDocetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil (DCF) have high response rates, but severe neutropenia is frequently observed. The occurrence of neutropenia is associated with high histological response in solid tumors, and it might be associated with tumor shrinkage after DCF therapy. This study aimed to determine the genetic polymorphisms involved in the clinical response to preoperative DCF therapy in esophageal cancer patients.

methodsWe included 56 patients with measurable lesions who received preoperative DCF therapy for esophageal cancer. Twenty-one genetic polymorphisms were analyzed, and univariate logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the association between genetic polymorphisms and tumor shrinkage. A multivariate logistic regression analysis adjusted for T category and tumor location and a univariate analysis for potential genetic factors with P values < 0.05 were performed to explore the predictive factors and to estimate odds ratios and their 95% confidence intervals.

resultsNo patient achieved a complete response, whereas 20 patients achieved a partial response, 31 patients had stable disease, and 5 patients had progressive disease. Although no association was found between pharmacokinetic-related gene polymorphisms, XRCC3 rs17997944 was extracted as the only genetic factor that affected tumor shrinkage (P = 0.033) by univariate analysis. The multivariate analysis adjusted for T category and tumor site also showed that XRCC3 rs1799794: AA was a predictive factor that affected tumor shrinkage (odds ratio, 0.243; 95% confidence interval, 0.065-0.914; P = 0.036). CONLUSIONS: XRCC3 rs1799794, which is involved in homologous recombination, is a genetic factor that affects clinical responses to DCF therapy.
