Metastatic lymph node ratio and Lauren classification are independent prognostic markers for survival rates of patients with gastric cancer.
Article in Oncology letters, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
The long-term prognosis for patients with gastric cancer (GC) following radical resection remains poor. It is important to identify prognostic markers to predict survival. In the present retrospective study, the association between the metastatic lymph node ratio (rN) and the Lauren classification on predicting overall survival (OS) was investigated. Furthermore, a subgroup analysis was performed on the Lauren classification, using rN score as an independent prognostic marker. In total, 261 pathologically confirmed patients with GC were retrospectively reviewed. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox's proportional hazards modeling were applied to analyze the OS of patients, and were utilized in the subgroup analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to compare the accuracy of prognosis between the rN score and lymph node staging (N stage). The χ
