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

opinion statementColorectal cancer (CRC) is a major public health problem and the 2nd leading-cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Around 30% of patients present with metastatic disease and 50% of those with early disease will eventually relapse. The metastatic spread occurs mainly to the liver, which is the exclusive site in 30-40% of the cases. Surgery is the main curative option for liver recurrence, but only one out of five patients are eligible for resection. Moreover, even if surgery is feasible, recurrence rate is high, occurring in up to 75% of patients. Therefore, additional treatment to improve these disappointing outcomes has been sought. Adjuvant and perioperative chemotherapy aim to eradicate early micrometastatic disease, decreasing recurrence rates, and improving survival outcomes. Different chemotherapy regimens, mainly extrapolated from the adjuvant experience, have showed conflicting results, with improvements in disease free but not in overall survival. The addition of targeted therapies to chemotherapy has improved response rates and resectability when administered preoperatively, but did not have an impact on survival in the adjuvant setting. There is a need to critically synthetize the available evidence on perioperative and conversion therapy from the past years, and appraise areas of current research and potential future directions.
