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

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the effects of sintilimab plus radiotherapy on levels of Spondin-2 and glucose transporter-1 (Glut-1) in patients with cervical cancer. Patients and Methods: A total of 112 patients with cervical cancer treated from January 2019 to January 2021 were selected in this randomized control trial and divided into a control group (n = 56) and a study group (n = 56) using the random number table method. Chemotherapy using docetaxel + cisplatin was performed for both groups, based on which the control group was given radiotherapy (external conformal radiotherapy + intracavitary irradiation), and the study group received sintilimab plus radiotherapy. The treatment lasted for six cycles, with 21 days as one cycle. Results: The total response rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group (55.36% vs 33.93%) (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in adverse effects between the two groups (P > 0.05). After six cycles of treatment, the levels of carcinoembryonic antigen, squamous cell carcinoma antigen, vascular endothelial growth factor-A, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, Spondin-2 and Glut-1 decreased in both groups compared with those before treatment, and they were lower in the study group (P < 0.05). The survival rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group (87.50% vs 71.43%) (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Sintilimab plus radiotherapy can effectively reduce the levels of serum tumor markers, such as Spondin-2 and Glut-1, and enhance the clinical efficacy on patients with cervical cancer, without increasing adverse effects.
