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

Purpose: To evaluate short-term effectiveness and safety of computed tomography (CT)-guided radioactive iodine-125 ( Material and methods: A total of 50 consecutive patients with adrenal metastases were enrolled retrospectively. Among them, 18 patients received CTRISI, and 18 received 3D-conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT) treatment. The remaining 14 patients without any treatments served as a control group. Follow-up CT was performed at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months after treatment. Tumor responses and complications were evaluated. Results: At 6 weeks, control rate in control group (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) was 0, and in the CTRISI group (CR + PR, 84.41%), it was significantly higher than that in the 3D-CRT group (CR + PR, 44.44%). Local control rates with CTRISI at 3 and 6 months were 68.42% and 57.89%, respectively. No severe complications were observed after CTRISI. Conclusions: CTRISI is an effective and safe method for short-term treatment of adrenal metastases. Our findings suggest that CTRISI can safely and effectively be used for adrenal metastases patients as short-term treatment. Further survival studies with longer follow-up are warranted to validate our results.
