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

aimTo assess the prognostic value of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) in Bismuth-Corlette type IV hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HC) patients.

methodsA retrospective analysis was performed on 142 consecutively recruited type IV HC patients undergoing radical resection with at least 5 years of follow-up. Survival analysis was performed by the Kaplan-Meier method, and the association between the clinicopathologic variables and survival was evaluated by log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was adopted to identify the independent prognostic factors for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the association between LVI and potential variables.

resultsLVI was confirmed histopathologically in 29 (20.4%) patients. Multivariate analysis showed that positive resection margin (HR = 6.255, 95%CI: 3.485-11.229,

conclusionLVI is associated with N1 stage and tumor size > 30 mm and adversely influences DFS and OS in type IV HC patients.
