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

Trabectedin extravasation can cause significant soft tissue disorders. Early surgical intervention has been recommended in the event of chemotherapeutic extravasation; however, treatment tends to remain conservative. Trabectedin is a vesicant drug that is associated with a risk of delayed tissue damage; therefore, leaks should be promptly stopped. Complications associated with central venous (CV) ports include infection, catheter damage and obstruction, which can lead to trabectedin extravasation. In the present case report, a 61-year-old woman who received trabectedin treatment for multiple liver and lung metastases is described. Extravasation developed from a CV port in the right chest during the third course of treatment and swelling was the only apparent symptom at that time. Trabectedin was immediately discontinued and she was administered steroids subcutaneously. Erythema, induration and tenderness appeared on day 1 after extravasation, but skin symptoms were not subsequently exacerbated. The central region of the erythema became crusted ~1 month after extravasation. When the skin condition had settled at 2 months post-extravasation, the patient underwent port removal, debridement and port reattachment.
