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

backgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the predictive and monitoring role of somatostatin receptor (SSTR) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) and clinical parameters in patients with neuroendocrine liver metastases (NELM) from pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNET) receiving capecitabine and temozolomide (CAPTEM). PATIENTS AND

methodsThis retrospective study included twenty-two patients with pNET and NELM receiving CAPTEM who underwent pre- and post-therapeutic

resultsThe median PFS (mPFS) was 7 months. Responders had a significantly longer mPFS compared to non-responders (10

conclusionsSSTR-PET/CT can be useful for predicting response and survival outcomes in pNET patients receiving CAPTEM: Higher baseline SUV values, particularly Tmax/Smean ratios of liver metastases were associated with better response and prolonged PFS.
