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

For patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP-NET), health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is important. Meanwhile, whether tumour volume is associated with HRQoL is unknown. Hence, the aim of this study was to assess if total somatostatin receptor expressing tumour volume is correlated with HRQoL in patients with metastatic GEP-NET. Some 71 patients were included in the study. HRQoL and NET-specific symptoms were assessed with EORTC QLQ-C30 and EORTC GI.NET21. A summary score was calculated from the output of the QLQ-C30. Total somatostatin receptor expressing tumour volume was retrospectively evaluated on somatostatin receptor imaging with positron emission tomography-computed tomography (
