The impact of selected factors on early diagnosis of multiple primary cancers in patients with uveal melanoma.

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.
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
aim of the studyTo find differences between a group of patients with intraocular melanoma and another primary cancer and a group of patients with no identifiable second primary cancer. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe analysis involved 240 participants, selected from patients who were treated for uveal melanoma at the Department of Ophthalmology and Ocular Oncology of the Jagiellonian University Medical College between the year 1998 and 2007. Among those patients 97 were diagnosed with one or more independent primary cancers. Those patients were subject to a comparative analysis with a second group of 143 patients who had uveal melanoma with no identifiable second primary cancer.
resultsSTATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GROUP OF PATIENTS WITH INTRAOCULAR MELANOMA AND ANOTHER PRIMARY CANCER, AND THE GROUP OF PATIENTS WITH UVEAL MELANOMA (BUT WITHOUT ANOTHER DIAGNOSED PRIMARY NEOPLASM) WERE AS FOLLOWS: more common family history of cancer, better education, living in cities (especially with a population over 500 thousand), previous surgery except for uveal melanoma, and two or less than two pregnancies in the case of women.
conclusionsThis analysis revealed that more common family history of cancer, better education, living in cities (especially with a population over 500 thousand), previous surgery, except for uveal melanoma, and two or less than two pregnancies in the case of women, were associated with a higher rate of detection of multiple primary cancers.
