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

In this study, we investigated a mathematical model for chemoimmunotherapy (a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy) for brain cancer. In most cases, the standard protocol for cancer treatment is fixed in terms of treatment time intervals and dosages. We offer a wide range of non-fixed protocols, which essentially vary in terms of time intervals and dosages (i.e., personalised medicine). The functions that describe this treatment are explicit and analytical. Hence, the parameters of the function can be easily changed and a new protocol can be obtained. We compared different protocols and obtained an optimal solution. In addition, we applied the singular perturbed vector field (SPVF) method to determine the hierarchy of the system of equations, which enabled us to identify the equilibrium points of the mathematical model and investigate their stability.
