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

In bladder urothelial carcinoma, ERBB2 mutations have been associated with favorable response to platinum-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy. However, this association has not been reported in upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC). We describe an excellent response to cisplatin-based chemotherapy in metastatic UTUC with an ERBB2 mutation. Our patient is a 54-year-old female with metastatic UTUC who received systemic cisplatin and gemcitabine. Postchemotherapy imaging demonstrated decreased size of pyelocaliceal mass and decreased retroperitoneal adenopathy compared to initial imaging. Surgical pathology from consolidative resection showed 3 mm residual renal tumor and no viable lymph node disease. Genomic testing demonstrated an ERBB2 gain of function mutation.
