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

Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NENs) are heterogeneous tumors with limited treatment options. This phase 2 Bayesian study evaluated the combination of regorafenib, a multikinase inhibitor, and avelumab, a programmed death 1 (PD1) ligand 1 inhibitor, in advanced grade 2-grade 3 well-differentiated GEP neuroendocrine tumors or grade 3 GEP neuroendocrine carcinomas after progression on prior therapies. A total of 47 participants were enrolled and 42 were evaluable for efficacy. Participants received regorafenib (160 mg per day) and avelumab (10 mg kg
