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

Irreversible electroporation (IRE) of locally advanced pancreatic cancer is an increasingly used method for unresectable pancreatic cancer that can be used in cytoreduction followed by surgical treatment and shows promising results in palliative care. IRE is an ablative technique where electric pulses cause damage to the cell membrane leading to apoptosis without the destruction of stroma. The application of IRE increases the concentration of hydrophobic regimens like bleomycin within the tumor, what could improve the effectiveness of treatment. This fusion of those two treatments is called electrochemotherapy. In this review, the authors will discuss the radiological perspective of possible beneficial role of irreversible electroporation in relation with chemotherapy in pancreatic cancer treatment.
