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

Locally advanced gastrointestinal cancers and cervical cancers are usually treated with a multimodality approach. Our case report shows a patient who was found to have gastrointestinal cancer in the cervix, and no primary gastrointestinal cancer was found on workup. She underwent chemoradiation to the pelvis with concurrent capecitabine and then underwent cervical brachytherapy with tandem and ovoid. She initially had done well but then noticed increased symptoms at follow-ups. Unfortunately, she was found to have residual disease about 16 months after the completion of treatment. There have been no reports of treatment of gastrointestinal cancer in the cervix with an unknown primary site in the literature to our knowledge.
