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

This study investigated the factors affecting the surgical treatment effect on patients with laryngeal cancer. The clinical data (including the sex, age, smoking index, drinking, primary tumor site, tumor (T) stage, lymph nodes (N) stage, tumor differentiation degree, tumor diameter, surgical method, lymph node metastasis and cervical lymph node dissection) of 215 patients with laryngeal cancer in The Central Hospital of Wuhan were analyzed retrospectively; the survival rate was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method; log-rank test was used for single-factor analysis, while Cox proportional hazard regression model was used for multiple-factor analysis. The 215 patients were followed up after surgical treatment. The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 96.2, 78.0 and 72.5%, respectively. The results of single-factor analysis showed that the age, primary tumor site, tumor differentiation degree, T stage, N stage, smoking index, tumor diameter and lymph node metastasis had significant influence on the postoperative curative effect on patients (P<0.05), but the patient's age, drinking and surgical method had no correlation with the postoperative curative effect (P>0.05). Multiple-factor analysis revealed that the primary tumor site, T stage, N stage and lymph node metastasis were the independent risk factors affecting the surgical effect on patients with laryngeal cancer. The survival rate of laryngeal cancer is decreased with the increase of T stage and N stage. The survival rate of patients with supraglottic laryngeal cancer is higher than that of patients with glottic laryngeal cancer and subglottic laryngeal cancer, and the survival rate of patients with lymph node metastasis-positive laryngeal cancer is lower than that of patients with lymph node metastasis-negative laryngeal cancer. The main factors affecting the survival rate of laryngeal cancer are primary tumor site, T stage, N stage and lymph node metastasis.
