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

backgroundAnti-epidermal growth factor receptor therapy showed an overall median survival improvement in

methodIn our study patients received 6 cycles of 5-FU based chemotherapy with Panitumumab and patients who had partial response, complete response or stationary disease received metronomic Capecitabine with Panitumumab every 2 weeks for one year. The primary end point was progression free survival (PFS) and the secondary end points were safety, toxicity and overall survival (OS).

resultsThe median PFS for all patients was 18 ± 1.4 months and the median OS was 45 months. Patients with synchronous metastasis and those who received Oxaliplatin based regimen with Panitumumab were found to have longer PFS compared to those with metachronous metastasis or those who received other chemotherapy regimen with accepted toxicity profile to the maintenance therapy.

conclusionUsing Panitumumab with metronomic Capecitabine is considered an accepted maintenance regimen in wild type
