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

Renal impairment may be associated with an increased risk of hematologic events (AEs) in patients undergoing treatment with trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI). This study aimed to investigate the specific types of AEs linked to renal impairment in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) receiving FTD/TPI, using real-world data. Among the patients included in the REGOTAS study (a retrospective study of FTD/TPI versus regorafenib), those treated with FTD/TPI were evaluated. Creatinine clearance values of < 30, 30-60, 60-90, and > 90 mL/min were defined as severe, moderate, mild renal impairment, and normal renal function, respectively. Renal impairment was analyzed as a risk factor for grade 3 or higher AEs using a logistic regression model. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) based on renal impairment were evaluated. A total of 309 patients were included in the analysis, with 124, 130, and 55 patients divided into the normal, mild, and moderate-to-severe groups, respectively. The risk of grade 3 or higher neutropenia was significantly higher in the moderate-to-severe group (odds ratio 3.47; 95% confidence interval 1.45-8.30; P = 0.005), but there was no significant increase in the risk of non-hematologic AEs in any of the groups. The OS and PFS of patients in the mild and moderate-to-severe groups were comparable to those in the normal group. Patients with mCRC and moderate/severe renal impairment receiving FTD/TPI therapy may develop severe neutropenia; however, FTD/TPI remains a viable treatment option due to its clinical benefit.
