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

backgroundCisplatin (CDDP) is an anticancer drug used to treat several types of cancer. CDDP-induced nephrotoxicity (CIN) is a serious adverse effect of CDDP treatment. Although magnesium sulfate (Mg) premedication has been proven to prevent CIN, the relationship between Mg dosage and its preventive effects on CIN are unknown. Therefore, we have evaluated this relationship using meta-analysis and meta-regression analysis to optimize cancer chemotherapies, including CDDP.

methodsWe selected candidate studies, generated a forest plot to evaluate the preventive effects of Mg on CIN, and performed subgroup analyses. Moreover, a meta-regression analysis was conducted to reveal the relationship between Mg dosage and its preventive effects on CIN.

resultsWe identified 17 related studies and the total odds ratio (OR) of Mg premedication on CIN was 0.26 and the 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.17-0.41 (p < 0.00001) although funnel plot suggested asymmetry. In subgroup analysis by forest plot, total OR with 95% CI of low Mg dosage administration (less than 10 mEq) and high Mg dosage administration (10 mEq or higher) was 0.35 (0.16-0.77, p = 0.0169) and 0.12 (0.07-0.21, p < 0.0001), respectively. In addition, meta-regression analysis was performed on Mg dosage and the OR of related studies, indicating a relationship between Mg dosage and OR (p = 0.0349).

conclusionThis study has revealed that premedication with Mg prevented CIN in a dose-dependent manner.
