Low Incidence of Lymph Node Metastasis After Resection of Hepatitis Virus-Related Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma.
Article in World journal of surgery, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
BACKGROUND AND
objectivesWe determined the rates of initial lymph node metastasis following curative resection of mass-forming type-intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) in patients with and without hepatitis virus infection.
methodsWe enrolled 87 patients between January 2000 and December 2013 with ICC without preoperative lymph node metastasis and without lymph node dissection. Patients included 32 who were seropositive for hepatitis B or C virus (virus group) and 55 who had no evidence of hepatitis virus infection (nonvirus group). Postsurgical outcomes and initial recurrence of the groups were compared, and we identified the risk factors for lymph node metastasis as initial recurrence.
resultsPlatelet counts and prothrombin activities were significantly lower in the virus group compared with those of the nonvirus group. The number of patients with chronic hepatitis or liver cirrhosis was significantly higher in the virus group compared with the nonvirus group as well as their respective rates of recurrence-free survival. One patient (3%) in the virus group and 14 patients (25%) in the nonvirus group had lymph node metastasis as initial recurrence (p = 0.007). Multivariate analysis revealed that the absence of hepatitis virus infection as an independent risk factor (p = 0.047).
conclusionHepatitis virus-associated mass-forming-type ICC confers a low risk of lymph node metastasis as initial postoperative recurrence.
