Adjuvant Chemoradiotherapy Versus Adjuvant Chemotherapy for Stage III Gastric or Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer After D2/R0 Resection.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: To compare the survival benefit in the adjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) group and chemotherapy (CT) group for stage III gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) cancer after D2/R0 resection. Methods and Materials: From January 2011 to May 2018, 819 patients (CRT group: 215 patients, CT group: 604 patients) diagnosed as pathological stage III after D2/R0 resection were retrospectively collected and the survival and recurrence patterns were analyzed. The baseline characteristics were balanced based on propensity score matching (PSM). The survival benefit was compared between two groups using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression model. Results: The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate in the CRT group was significantly higher than that in the CT group whether before or after the PSM. The multivariate Cox regression analysis identified the significant poor OS in patients with advanced TNM stage (P < 0.001) and patients who did not receive the adjuvant CRT (P = 0.008). For the recurrence patterns, 85 (39.5%) patients in the CRT group and 300 (49.7%) patients in the CT group were diagnosed as recurrence (P = 0.011). The regional recurrence in the CRT group was less than that in the CT group (20.5% vs. 35.1%, P = 0.028). Conclusion: For patients diagnosed as stage III gastric cancer or gastroesophageal junction cancer, the addition of adjuvant chemoradiotherapy will significantly improve the overall survival and regional control.
