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

purposePrevention of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) remains an essential supportive care need for patients receiving cancer treatment. Due to inadequate access to antiemetics in many countries, guideline-recommended CINV prophylaxis is not always possible. Our goal was to formulate antiemetic recommendations for resource-limited settings and define alternative antiemetic regimens for the CINV prophylaxis after highly (HEC) and moderately emetic chemotherapy (MEC), when NK

methodsThe recommendations based on the MASCC/ESMO 2023 Guideline Update were considered as the best option. The stratification based on a meta-analysis published by Filetti et al. (2023) was used in order to select and rank NK

resultsFor the prevention of acute CINV, in patients receiving HEC (HEC-cisplatin and AC-HEC) with no access to an NK

conclusionThe most effective prevention of CINV recommended by the MASCC/ESMO 2023 Guideline Update must be given when available and affordable. These recommendations were developed to facilitate decision on which regimen to use when the best MASCC/ESMO 2023 recommended regimen is not accessible because NK
