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

backgroundThis open-label, multicentre, phase II/III trial assessed the noninferiority of trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) plus bevacizumab vs. fluoropyrimidine and irinotecan plus bevacizumab (control) as second-line treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC).

methodsPatients were randomised (1:1) to receive FTD/TPI (35 mg/m

resultsOverall, 397 patients were enrolled. Baseline characteristics were similar between the groups. Median OS was 14.8 vs. 18.1 months (FTD/TPI plus bevacizumab vs. control; HR 1.38; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.99-1.93; P

conclusionsFTD/TPI plus bevacizumab did not demonstrate noninferiority to fluoropyrimidine and irinotecan plus bevacizumab as second-line treatment for mCRC. CLINICAL
