The Vanderbilt staging system for retroperitoneal sarcoma: a validation study of 6857 patients from the National Cancer Database.
Article in Modern pathology : an official journal of the United States and Canadian Academy of Pathology, Inc, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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 Vanderbilt staging system for retroperitoneal sarcoma incorporates information regarding the histologic subtype of sarcoma and outperforms the 7th and 8th editions of the AJCC staging systems by several different statistical criteria. The current study was performed using an independent patient cohort from the National Cancer Database (n = 6857) to validate this proposed staging system. Each staging system was assessed for degree of discrimination by pairwise comparisons of adjacent stage categories. Predictive accuracy of 5-year overall survival was performed by comparison of areas under receiver operating characteristic curves generated from logistic regression. Three different concordance indices (Harrell's c, Somers' D, and Gönen and Heller's K) were calculated using bootstrap methods. Amount of variation in observed outcomes explained by each staging system was assessed using O'Quigley's ρ
