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

purposeThe aim of the study was to analyze KELIM (modeled CA125 ELIMination rate constant K) and RECIST 1.1. (radiological response valuation criteria in solid tumors) as indicators of tumor chemosensitivity and their role in predicting patient prognosis.

methodsThis retrospective single-center analysis included 165 consecutive patients with advanced newly diagnosed high-grade serous ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer who underwent surgical and chemotherapeutical treatment at the Department of Gynecologic Oncology.

resultsThere were significant differences in OS between the neoadjuvant and adjuvant groups of patients (20.87 vs 32.88 months). There was a significant difference in the response to treatment assessed in imaging studies between the groups, with higher rates of complete and partial responses to treatment among PDS patients (p = 0.002). However, upon a separate analysis of the NACT and PDS subgroups, the multivariate analysis showed no significant influence of KELIM and RECIST 1.1. response on patients' overall survival of patients.

conclusionOur findings showed no significant associations between KELIM, RECIST and overall survival of patients. However, further studies on bigger homogenous population samples are required to confirm our findings.
