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

Neoadjuvant cisplatin-based chemotherapy is recommended prior to surgical removal of the bladder for patients with non-metastatic muscle invasive bladder cancer. Despite a survival benefit, approximately half of patients do not respond to chemotherapy and are exposed potentially unnecessarily to substantial toxicity and delay in surgery. Therefore, biomarkers to identify likely responders before initiating chemotherapy would be a helpful clinical tool. Furthermore, biomarkers may be able to identify patients who do not need subsequent surgery after clinical complete response to chemotherapy. To date, there are no clinically approved predictive biomarkers of response to neoadjuvant therapy. Recent advances in the molecular characterization of bladder cancer have shown the potential role for DNA damage repair (DDR) gene alterations and molecular subtypes to guide therapy, but these need validation from prospective clinical trials. This chapter reviews candidate predictive biomarkers of response to neoadjuvant therapy in muscle invasive bladder cancer.
