Cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy outcomes in peritoneal carcinomatosis: 11-year tertiary-center experience.
Article in BMC cancer, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundCytoreductive Surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are techniques developed for curative treatment of peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC). Studies have shown that CRS + HIPEC provides a survival advantage in PC, and long-term survival can be achieved in selected cases. This study aimed to evaluate CRS + HIPEC cases performed for curative purposes and to examine the prognostic factors.
methodsPC patients who underwent CRS + HIPEC with curative intent between January 2011 and September 2022 were included. Demographic, clinical, and pathological findings, procedure-specific parameters, complications, mortality, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were analyzed.
resultsOptimal cytoreduction was achieved in 70% of the patients. The median PFS for the entire series was 9.2 months, while the median OS was 20.5 months, with a 3-year OS rate of 36%. Appendiceal origin, cytoreduction score, absence of lymph node metastasis, and absence of complications were factors associated with a positive impact on both PFS and OS. In multivariate analysis, cytoreduction score emerged as the sole independent factor influencing both PFS and OS.
conclusionsConsidering the results in our series, cases of PC in which complete cytoreduction can be achieved should be evaluated for CRS + HIPEC.
