Effectiveness of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy during primary curative resection for colorectal carcinoma.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposePeritoneal metastasis (PM) is the life-threatening cause of colorectal cancer patients (CRC). Adjuvant hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) plus cytoreductive surgery exhibited promising effects in preventing recurrence and increasing the survival of CRC patients. However, the outcomes of HIPEC on treating advanced CRC with risk of PM are still controversial. Here, we retrospectively examined the impact of HIPEC on preventing PM and its overall effects on patients with locally advanced CRC who underwent primary curative resection at our center.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 45 patients diagnosed with locally advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) who underwent primary curative laparoscopic surgery with proactive hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC), in conjunction with adjuvant systemic chemotherapy at our center between 2019 and 2022. An additional 55 patients with locally advanced CRC who underwent similar surgery and received adjuvant systemic chemotherapy but did not undergo HIPEC during the same period were selected as the control group. Disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), and PM incidence were compared between patients with and without HIPEC. RESULTS AND
conclusionsThe cumulative PM incidence was 2.2% in the HIPEC group and 14.5% in the control group(P = 0.0347). No significant adverse effects were observed in the HIPEC group. Furthermore, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the HIPEC correlated to better DFS [hazard ratio (HR) 0.4670, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.2305-0.9462; P = 0.0345] and extended the overall survival of CRC patients [hazard ratio (HR) 0.3978, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.1684-0.9395; P = 0.0355]. Therefore, our data supports that adjuvant HIPEC can prevent peritoneal failure in CRC patients and improve both PFS and OS survival following primary curative resection.
