Radical hysterectomy with or without para-aortic lymphadenectomy for patients with stage IB2, IIA2, and IIB cervical cancer: outcomes for a series of 308 patients.
Article in International journal of clinical oncology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundAlthough many studies have already shown that lymph node metastasis is one of the major prognostic factors for cervical cancer, the therapeutic significance of para-aortic lymphadenectomy for the surgical treatment of cervical cancer remains controversial.
methodsA total of 308 patients diagnosed with stage IB2, IIA2, or IIB cervical cancer and treated with radical hysterectomy were retrospectively investigated to assess the incidence of para-aortic lymph node metastasis and the clinicopathological factors linked to cervical cancer prognosis.
resultsPara-aortic lymph node metastases were pathologically confirmed in 13 of the 136 patients (9.6 %) who underwent para-aortic lymphadenectomy. The incidence of para-aortic lymph node metastasis was significantly higher in the patients who had common iliac lymph node metastases (odds ratio 31.5, p < 0.001) according to logistic regression analysis. Common iliac lymph node metastasis was related to risk of recurrence (hazard ratio 2.43, p = 0.003) and death (hazard ratio 2.62, p = 0.007) in Cox regression analysis. Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression analysis showed that para-aortic lymphadenectomy did not have a positive impact on survival in 308 patients or 140 pN1 patients, but para-aortic lymphadenectomy was related to better overall survival with a marginal trend toward significance (p = 0.053) in 30 patients with common iliac lymph node metastasis.
conclusionsIndication for para-aortic lymphadenectomy in the surgical treatment of stage IB2, IIA2, or IIB cervical cancer needs to be individualized. Patients with common iliac lymph node metastasis are possible candidates, and a prospective study is needed to clarify this issue.
