Outcomes of radiation therapy for resectable M0 gastric cancer.
Article in Oncotarget, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe role of radiaotion therapy in resectable gastric cancer patients without distant metastases remains controversial. This retrospective analysis was performed to identify whether resectable gastric cancer patients without distant metastases might benefit from radiation.
resultsThe results of the Kaplan-Meier analysis and log-rank test showed that a total of 3309 patients had a MST of 29.0 months, a 1-year survival rate of 74.7%, and a 3-year survival rate of 45.5%. Among them, the MST of the "RPS" group and the "RAS" group were significantly longer compared with that of the "No Radiation" group (32.7vs 32.9 vs 25.3 months, MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 5744 patients from the SEER database who were initially diagnosed with histologically confirmed gastric cancer without distant metastases from 2010 to 2013 were included. Patients were divided into three groups as follows: patients who underwent radiation after surgery ("RAS" group), patients who underwent radiation prior to surgery ("RPS" group) and patients who did not undergo radiation ,only surgery performed ("No radiation'"group).
conclusionsThis retrospective analysis demonstrated that "RPS" or "RAS"alone were independent prognostic factors for survival improvement in selected gastric cancer patients without distant metastases.
