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.
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
Objective: Exploring the clinical efficacy and safety of targeted therapy, immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on the medical records of 134 patients with advanced gastric cancer who visited Renmin Hospital, Hubei University of Medicine from January 2019 to December 2022. According to therapeutic regimens, enrolled patients were divided into the control group and the study group. Patients in the control group received chemotherapy intervention, while those in the study group were provided with a combined intervention of apatinib, PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy. We analyze the tumor control effect and incidence of adverse reactions in two groups of patients. Results: The disease control rate (DCR) of patients in the study group and the control group was 72.06% and 42.42%, with an overall response rate (ORR) of 8.82% and 4.55%, The differences are statistically significant(P<0.05). By the end of follow-up, the median progression-free survival (mPFS) and the median overall survival (mOS) of the control group patients were 3.0±0.266 and 5.0±0.224 months respectively; while the mPFS and mOS of the study group were 5.0±0.261 and 7.0±0.172 months respectively, the differences are statistically significant (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: The therapeutic regimen of apatinib, a PD-1 inhibitor combined with chemotherapy exhibits relatively high clinical efficacy and safety for the treatment of patients with advanced gastric cancer. It can be considered as an interventional option for this type of patient.
