Successful treatment of recurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with muscle metastasis using capecitabine and cetuximab.

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
Esophageal cancer (EC) is a relatively rare malignancy in the United States, although it is associated with high morbidity and mortality. More than 90% of EC cancer-related mortality is due to distant metastasis, most commonly to the liver, lungs, bone, and brain. Although EC has a high tendency for random dissemination, it rarely metastasizes to the muscles and soft tissue. Here, we report a rare case of a patient with recurrent esophageal squamous cell carcinoma metastasis to his left thigh musculature, initially suspected to be a soft tissue sarcoma on magnetic resonance imaging. The patient did not tolerate standard chemotherapy with epirubicin, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine and was subsequently successfully treated with neoadjuvant radiotherapy, surgery, and adjuvant chemotherapy with capecitabine and cetuximab for 2 years and capecitabine alone for 1 year.
