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

backgroundHyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) following cytoreductive surgery is a potentially curative treatment for patients with peritoneal metastases. Currently, there is no standardized protocol for performing HIPEC and there is large variation in the key parameters. In vivo models can be a valuable tool to better understand the impact of these parameters and how to improve this treatment strategy.

methodsPeritoneal tumors were established in immunodeficient mice by intraperitoneal injection of the high-grade serous human ovarian cancer cell line B76. Thirty-minute perfusion with cisplatin or mitomycin C at 37 or 41 °C was performed 4 days later. Treatment efficacy was assessed by measuring bioluminescence and overall survival.

resultsWe successfully established a closed peritoneal chemotherapy perfusion model in mice bearing peritoneal metastases. Perfusion with cisplatin and mitomycin C significantly inhibited tumor growth and increased overall survival by 38-48%. The addition of hyperthermia did not improve survival, although a clear synergistic effect with hyperthermia was observed in vitro for both drugs.

conclusionThe results suggest that intraperitoneal perfusion of cisplatin and mitomycin C can be a valuable adjuvant to cytoreductive surgery, while the addition of moderate hyperthermia did not improve efficacy. Additional studies investigating long-term outcome are necessary to determine the impact of hyperthermia as a component of the HIPEC procedure.
