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

Esophageal carcinoma is one of the most common causes of cancer-related mortality. It usually presents as locally advanced and metastatic disease with poor prognosis. Dysphagia is the most frequent symptom. This is a retrospective study on seventy two patients of locally advanced esophageal carcinoma who had inoperable disease. The patients were divided into two arms- concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by Intraluminal Brachytherapy (ILBT) or CRT alone. In the CRT + ILBT arm (arm A), thirty-six patients received EBRT 50 Gy in 25 fractions at 2 Gy per fraction with concurrent weekly 40 mg/m
