Ten-year single-center experience with treatment of primary diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM) by cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC).

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
purposeThis single-center study evaluated cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM).
methodsProspectively collected data from a single institution data registry was retrospectively investigated. Eighty-four patients with primary malignant peritoneal mesothelioma underwent CRS and HIPEC with cisplatin and doxorubicin either for 60 min or 90 min of duration from 2011 to 2021. The primary endpoint was overall survival. The secondary endpoint was the evaluation of prognostic factors for overall survival. The tertiary endpoint was to assess the effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on survival.
resultsThe median follow-up was 5.0 years (95%-CI 4.6-5.5). The median age was 59.2 years (IQR: 47-66). Eighty-two patients (97.6%) had epithelioid tumors. The median peritoneal cancer index was 18.0 (IQR: 13-27). Sixty-six patients (78.6%) had complete or near-complete cytoreduction (CCR 0 or CCR 1). Seventy patients (83.3%) received HIPEC for 60 min and 14 patients (16.7%) received it for 90 min. Twenty-two patients (26.2%) had grade 3 to 4 complications. Acute kidney injury (AKI) stage I-III occurred in 30 (35.7%) patients. Three patients (3.6%) died perioperatively. The overall median survival was 38.4 months (95%-CI 23.6-54.3), and the 5-year survival rate was 42%. Survival was independently associated with age, female gender, and thrombocytosis. Preoperative chemotherapy did not emerge as an adverse prognostic factor.
conclusionIn well-selected patients with DMPM, prolonged survival is achievable with CRS and HIPEC in specialized centers.
