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

Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is an anti-cancer drug target for colon cancer. Among patients with colorectal malignancy (colorectal cancer, CRC), those with HER2 mutations have a poor overall prognosis and a significantly increased drug resistance. In recent years, anti-HER2 therapeutic drugs have developed rapidly. According to several clinical studies and case reports, anti-HER2 therapy, as an emerging anti-cancer approach, plays a crucial role in the treatment of HER2-positive CRC patients. Here, we present a case of HER2-positive descending colon cancer with peritoneal metastasis. The patient is a 26-year-old male, diagnosed with malignant tumor of the descending colon with peritoneal metastasis in April 2020. After multiple treatment modalities, the disease progressed. After chemotherapy with Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd/DS-8201), the metastatic foci significantly shrank, and after surgical resection, a tumor-free state (NED) was achieved. Up to now, the patient's survival period has reached 56 months.
