Relationship between red cell distribution width and prognosis in patients with breast cancer after operation: a retrospective cohort study.

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
We retrospectively enrolled 825 breast cancer patients, who was primarily diagnosed in our hospital between January 2009 and December 2014 and explored the relationship between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and long-term prognosis in patients with breast cancer. There were 412 patients with high RDW (RDW > 13.82) and 413 patients with low RDW (RDW ≤ 13.82). Compared with low RDW group, the high w group has large tumor size (the rate of tumor size >2 cm: 60.7 vs 44.8%,
