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

objectivesTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer and its effect on nutritional status and changes of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets.

methodsSixty patients with locally advanced gastric cancer who were admitted by Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University from March 2020 to February 2021 were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups, with 30 cases in each group. The control group was treated with FOLFOX4 chemotherapy, while the experimental group was additively treated with cindilizumab on the basis of control group. The incidence of adverse reactions, clinical efficacy, improvement of nutritional and physical status, and changes in the levels of T lymphocyte subgroups in the two groups were compared and analyzed.

resultsThe total effective rate was 70% in the experimental group, which was better than 43.3% of the control group (

conclusionImmunotherapy combined with chemotherapy has a significant effect on locally advanced gastric cancer patients, with significant improvement in physical strength and nutritional status, significant improvement in T lymphocyte function, and no obvious adverse reactions. It is worth promoting in clinical application.
