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

At present, there are few options for third line and above treatment of advanced gastric cancer and the single drug effect is poor. HER2 positive gastric cancer is an important subtype of gastric cancer and has certain immune characteristics. The combination of HER2 inhibitor and PD-1 inhibitor has a synergistic effect, and anti-tumor drugs targeting HER2 can play an anti-angiogenesis role by downregulating VEGF. We report a patient with HER2-positive gastric cancer who developed post-operative tumor recurrence and metastasis after adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Trastuzumab combined with albumin paclitaxel was used as second-line treatment with progression-free survival for 9 months. In third line treatment, we retained trastuzumab and combined it with camrelizumab and apatinib. During the treatment period, although the patient stopped taking the drugs due to the side effects of camrelizumab and apatinib, he achieved a PFS of 10.4 months. Considering the good effect of the third line treatment, we added another PD-1 inhibitor and continued to combine trastuzumab treatment. We found that the patient still benefited from the treatment and continued to survive for another 4 months. At present, the patient is treated with DisitamabVedotin (HER2-ADC) combined with PD-1 inhibitor, and no overall survival outcome has been observed.
