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

Background: Bone marrow metastasis (BMM) of gastric cancer (GC), which is the most common cause of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) among solid tumors, has a poor prognosis. Studies on prognostic improvement beyond one year in patients with GC with BMM are limited. This is the first report of a patient who survived over three years after 30 months of S-1 plus oxaliplatin (SOX) therapy for GC with BMM. Case Report: The patient was a 72-year-old woman who presented with anemia and high levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9). Detailed examination led to the diagnosis with BMM of GC uncomplicated by DIC and the SOX regimen was initiated in November 2018. After six cycles, she was switched to S-1 monotherapy, and both ALP and CA19-9 levels reached normal by November 2019. However, computed tomography in April 2021 showed multiple bone metastases. Therefore, she was switched to paclitaxel-based therapy. In November 2021, the patient was further switched to nivolumab monotherapy, but she succumbed due to DIC in March 2022. Conclusion: GCs with BMM are prone to DIC, and the SOX regimen, which includes S-1 with efficacy against micrometastases, may constitute a safe and effective treatment modality.
