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

backgroundThis study analyzed the clinical features and prognosis of basaloid squamous cell carcinoma of the lung (BSC), and constructed a nomogram to predict the prognoses of patients.

methodsThe information of pure BSC patients was obtained in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database between 2004 and 2015. Then, it was evaluated, and compared with the data of lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), lung large cell carcinoma (LCC) and lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) patients. Subsequently, we used univariate and multivariate analyses to investigate the independent factors related to the prognoses of patients with BSC and constructed a nomogram to verify the prognoses.

resultsA total of 425 patients diagnosed with BSC were enrolled. Compared with patients with SCC, LCC and LAC, the mean survival time of BSC patients was better than all of them. Compared with SCC, there were significant differences between the characteristics of grade (

conclusionsBSC had unique clinical and prognostic features. T stage, N stage, M stage, age, and surgery were independently associated with overall survival (OS). Lobectomy was a relative ideal choice for patients with BSC. The nomogram effectively predicted the OS at 1-, 3-, and 5-years.
