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

Objectives: The prognosis of patients with peritoneal metastases (PM) is poor, and these patients have a brief overall survival. Most patients with advanced PM receive palliative therapy to maintain their quality of life. In our current study, we investigated whether patient-specific 3D-tissue slices from patients with PM subjected to pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy could be cultured Methods: Biopsies from gastric cancer patients with PM were characterized for cytokeratin-positive tumor cells and the proliferation marker Ki-67. Biopsies from seven patients were cut to 350 µM thick slices in a standardized manner, cultured with 10 µM 5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, cisplatin, oxaliplatin, or irinotecan for 96 h, and then examined histopathologically and via immunohistochemistry for persistent cytokeratin and Ki-67 expression. Results: Conclusions: Potentially, these cultures are a reliable model to evaluate the chemosensitivity of patients with PM. Further investigation is needed to match the chemosensitivity with the clinical course of these patients.
