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

backgroundMATERIALS AND

methodsA prospectively maintained institutional database of gastroesophageal cancer patients was queried for pretreatment PET-CTs, demographics, and clinicopathologic variables.

resultsTwo-hundred and one patients with distal gastroesophageal (48 %) or gastric (52 %) adenocarcinoma were included. PET-CT-derived scores were independently associated with PR after adjusting for clinical variables. CART and Random Forest methods identified critical split points of non-tumor tissue

conclusionsPretreatment host PETMet features may be useful for predicting PR after neoadjuvant therapy in gastroesophageal cancer. Unsupervised decision trees indicate that low
