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

objectiveTo explore the relationship between glucose metabolism and acute radiation enteritis from chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer.

methodsIn this retrospective study, the clinical data of 75 rectal cancer patients who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy in Binzhou Second People's Hospital from February 2019 to February 2022 were collected and analyzed. According to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG)/European Organization for Research on Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) radiation response grading criteria, the patients were classified into four groups with different glucose metabolism statuses: NGR (normal glucose regulation) group, IFG (impaired fasting glucose) group, IGT (impaired glucose tolerance) group, and DM (diabetes mellitus) group. Two-factor logistic regression was used to analyze whether IFG, IGT, or DM were risk factors for acute radiation enteritis.

results(1) The fasting plasma glucose (FPG, F=20.550,

conclusionsDM was significantly correlated with acute radiation enteritis induced by concurrent chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer, while IFG and IGT were not.
