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

Pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab demonstrated prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) versus chemotherapy in patients with persistent, recurrent, or metastatic cervical cancer in the phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled KEYNOTE-826 study. We report outcomes in patients enrolled in Japan. Patients received pembrolizumab 200 mg or placebo Q3W for up to 35 cycles plus chemotherapy (paclitaxel 175 mg/m
