Clinicopathological features and surgical treatment of cervical oesophageal cancer.
Article in Scientific reports, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Cervical oesophageal cancer (CEC) is a relatively uncommon malignancy. The biological behaviour and treatment have not been well studied. This retrospective study reviewed the clinicopathological features of 28 patients with CEC who underwent surgical resection to investigate the biological behaviour, treatment and prognosis of CEC. The long-term outcomes of these patients were compared with those of the CEC patients who received definitive chemoradiotherapy and those of thoracic or abdominal oesophageal cancer patients who underwent surgery. The study group contained 21 men and 7 women, ranging in age from 41 to 67 years (median: 56.5 years). The median survival time and the 1-, 3-, and 5-year overall survival rates were 25.0 months, 83.8%, 48.8%, and 41.9%, respectively. Only salvage surgery was found to affect the overall survival (P = 0.007). The long-term outcomes for CEC patients who underwent surgery were significantly better than those who received definitive chemoradiotherapy (P = 0.045) but were similar to those of thoracic or abdominal oesophageal cancer patients. In summary, CEC is an uncommon and aggressive malignancy. The malignant potential of CEC is similar to that of thoracic or abdominal oesophageal cancer. Surgical resection is an important therapeutic strategy and may be associated with better survival rates than definitive chemoradiotherapy.
