Comparison of prognostic values of primary tumor and nodal
Article in European radiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
introductionWe hypothesized that, in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with N1 metastasis, N1 nodal
methodsWe enrolled 106 NSCLC patients with pathology-confirmed N1 metastasis. N1 node FDG positivity, primary tumor maximum standard uptake value (SUV
resultsSubjects were 67 males and 39 females (61.9 ± 9.4 years). Eighty-one (76.4%) and 25 (23.6%) had pathologic stage IIB and IIIA NSCLC, respectively. All underwent complete tumor resection. FDG-positive N1 nodes were larger and had higher primary tumor SUV
conclusionN1 node FDG status can be useful for predicting the outcome of NSCLC patients with N1 metastasis beyond that provided by other prognostic variables. KEY POINTS: • In NSCLC with N1 disease, N1 node FDG status is useful as a prognostic predictor. • FDG-positive N1 nodes provide additional prognostic value beyond TLG of primary tumor. • Combining TLG of primary tumor and N1 node uptake can stratify the survival of patients.
