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

Advanced gastric cancer (AGC) patients with severe peritoneal metastases (SPM), characterized by massive ascites and/or inadequate oral intake, have a poor prognosis with the median overall survival of around 7 months, even when treated with fluorouracil/l-leucovorin plus oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX6), despite being a treatment options for these patients demonstrated in the WJOG10517G study. However, these patients were excluded from pivotal Phase III trials, including the CheckMate 649 study, which demonstrated the benefit of adding nivolumab to mFOLFOX6, due to tumor-related complications. Given the lack of data on the efficacy and safety of combining nivolumab with mFOLFOX6 for AGC patients with SPM, we initiated a Phase II study to evaluate this combination. The primary endpoint was the 1-year survival rate.
