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

Peptide receptor chemoradionuclide therapy (PRCRT), the addition of radiosensitising chemotherapy to peptide receptor radionuclide therapy (PRRT), has been used in individual centres for neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs), but there are few data to date regarding its efficacy and safety. We conducted a systematic review to document the efficacy and side effect profile of this combination. We searched for studies including ≥5 patients with advanced NENs who received PRCRT. Major databases were searched and supplemented by handsearching of major conferences from 2019 to 2023. Data extracted included clinicopathological characteristics, trial setting and doses of chemotherapy and PRRT administered. Endpoints included overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and adverse events (AEs); summarised qualitatively because of the marked heterogeneity in patient populations, trial designs and treatments administered. Eligible studies (24) included: 14 retrospective studies (643 patients) and 10 prospective studies (521 patients). For PRRT, most studies used
