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

background and purposeAbout 70% of patients with radical surgery Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) have recurrence and metastasis. There are few studies on the relationship between CCA adjuvant chemotherapy (mono or combined therapy), recurrence pattern (local, regional, distant recurrence) and prognosis [(Disease free survival, DFS), (Overall survival, OS)] after radical surgery. This study focuses on the correlation between CCA adjuvant chemotherapy, recurrence pattern and prognosis.

methodsThe study involved retrospective analysis of data: preoperative hematology, clinical pathology, adjuvant chemotherapy regimens, recurrence pattern, DFS and OS, of 207 patients with CCA. Chi-square test was used to analyze the correlation between related factors and postoperative recurrence. Survival curves were plotted by Kaplan-Meier method, P-values were calculated by Log-rank for univariate analysis, multivariate COX regression method for multivariate analysis.

resultsUsing chi-square test, there were correlations between high carbohydrate antigen 19-9 level(CA19-9≥35), vascular invasion, single-agent adjuvant chemotherapy and postoperative recurrences (p=0.04, p=0.04, p=0.02), COX multivariate regression analysis showed that adjuvant chemotherapy (single vs. doublet drug regimen) was an independent prognostic factor for DFS (11.0 vs. 24.6 months, HR=2.88, P=0.01), whereas recurrence pattern (local vs. distant; regional vs. distant) was an independent prognostic factor for OS (31.2 months vs. 20.4 months, HR=0.58, p=0.01; 32.0 months vs. 20.4 months, HR=0.51, p=0.01).

conclusionAdjuvant chemotherapy regimen was an independent prognostic factor of DFS, whereas recurrence patterns were independent prognostic factors for OS. adjuvant chemotherapy with doublet drug regimen was correlated with longer DFS, and different recurrence modes affect OS.
