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

backgroundVarious nozzle designs are used in pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy (PIPAC), but comparative in vivo data on their pharmacologic effects are limited.

methodsThree groups of four pigs each received PIPAC with oxaliplatin (92 mg) using nebulizers with different designs: group 1 (full-spray-cone single directional), group 2 (hollow-spray-cone single directional), and group 3 (full-spray-cone multidirectional). Oxaliplatin concentrations (µg/g) were measured in blood, peritoneal tissue, and intra-abdominal fluid using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry.

resultsNo significant differences in mean oxaliplatin concentrations in peritoneal tissue were observed: group 1 (12.37 ± 10.81 µg/g), group 2 (5.83 ± 6.18 µg/g), group 3 (9.46 ± 6.10 µg/g) ( p = 0.1002). However, group 3 had a significantly higher mean total oxaliplatin concentration in visceral peritoneal tissue (3.97 ± 0.63 µg/g) than group 1 (2.6 ± 0.56 µg/g) or group 2 (2.15 ± 0.37 µg/g ( p = 0.028). The mean total tissue uptake was also higher in group 3 (41.98 mg) than in group 1 (28.14 mg) or group 2 (36.65 mg) (p = 0.05). Pairwise comparisons showed no significant differences (group 1 vs group 2 [p = 0.1000], group 2 vs group 3 [p = 0.700]). No significant differences in blood absorption were noted (p = 0.106).

conclusionThe full-spray-cone multidirectional nebulizer design in group 3 resulted in significantly higher oxaliplatin concentrations in the small bowel peritoneum with greater total oxaliplatin tissue uptake than with the two other designs.
