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 summarize the treatment process of a case of Iodine-125 Brachytherapy for Palliative Treatment of Painful Colorectal Cancer Port-Site Metastases.

methodsWe present a case report of multifocal port-site metastases ( PSMs ) that developed in a patient with stage IV ascending colonic adenocarcinoma and mucinous cancer following laparoscopic surgery. After multiline therapy failed, painful PSMs treated with repeated iodine-125 seed implantation.

resultsSevere abdominal discomfort were eventually successfully managed after receiving iodine-125 brachytherapy.

conclusionFor painful PSMs, iodine-125 brachytherapy can be a safe and effective treatment option.
