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

Although nanoliposomal irinotecan combined with 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin (nal-IRI+5-FU/LV) has been used to treat first-line resistant unresectable pancreatic cancer, the efficacy and safety data among the elderly remain limited. We retrospectively analyzed clinical outcomes among elderly patients. Patients treated with nal-IRI+5-FU/LV were assigned to the elderly (≥75 years) and non-elderly (<75 years) groups. Herein, 85 patients received nal-IRI+5-FU/LV, with 32 assigned to the elderly group. Patient characteristics in the elderly and non-elderly groups were as follows: age: 78.5 (75-88)/71 (48-74), male: 17/32 (53%/60%), performance status (ECOG) 0:9/20 (28%/38%), nal-IRI+5-FU/LV in second line: 23/24 (72%/45%), respectively. A significantly high number of elderly patients exhibited aggravated kidney and hepatic functions. Median overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in the elderly group vs. non-elderly group were 9.4 months vs. 9.9 months (hazard ratio (HR) 1.51, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.85-2.67,
