The Meta-Analysis of Bevacizumab Combined with Platinum-Based Treatment of Malignant Pleural Effusions by Thoracic Perfusion.
Article in Journal of oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo evaluate the safety of bevacizumab combined with platinum-based thoracic perfusion for treating lung cancer-related malignant pleural effusion (MPE) through meta-analysis.
methodsThe CNKI, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP), and Wanfang Databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of bevacizumab combined with platinum-based thoracic perfusion for the treatment of MPE. The references included in the articles were manually searched for additional studies. A meta-analysis of the RCTs was conducted using the RevMan 5.3 application.
resultsA total of 8 studies involving 540 patients (271 cases in the test group and 269 cases in the control group) were included in the meta-analysis. The test group had a significantly greater risk of elevated blood pressure as well as a higher rate of complete remission (CR) compared to the control group (
conclusionBevacizumab combined with platinum-based thoracic perfusion can achieve CR of MPE in patients with advanced lung cancer without significantly increasing the risk of adverse effects. The rate of PR was similar for the combination treatment and platinum-based infusion.
