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

backgroundCarboplatin is used to treat gynecologic cancers. Reexposure to carboplatin in the recurrent disease setting increases the risk of hypersensitivity reactions, which can be mild or cause death. A carboplatin desensitization protocol was developed to help with patient tolerance, but no standard protocol existed.

objectivesThis protocol was updated to replace an older desensitization protocol, align with best practices, and bring cost savings to the institution through reduced labor and shortened hospital stays.

methodsThe updated four-bag, four-hour protocol was implemented in patient care on March 8, 2024. A total of five desensitizations were completed. Each desensitization was retrospectively reviewed and assessed for safety and tolerability using the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events.

findingsFive desensitizations successfully occurred for two patients between March 8 and July 13, 2024. Each desensitization saved $108 in pharmacy supply costs and $92 in pharmacy labor costs. Saved nursing costs totaled about $400 for each desensitization.
