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

purposeRisk stratification of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is crucial to select the appropriate treatments, but available models for patients with complete resection are unsatisfactory. The purpose of this study was to determine a prediction model based on clinical information, routine physical and blood tests, and molecular markers. PATIENTS AND

methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent surgical resection for lung cancer between 2009 to 2013. Potential prognostic factors were used to build a full prediction model based on a multivariable Cox regression analysis. A nomogram was constructed. The risk stratification cutoffs for clinical use were determined based on the model.

resultsA total of 368 NSCLC patients with R0 resection were included. The final multivariable model indicated that low diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (HR=1.66, 95% CI: 1.18-2.34), high platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (HR=1.42, 95% CI: 1.04-1.95), histology type of squamous cell carcinoma and others (squamous cell carcinoma vs adenocarcinoma, HR=1.40, 95% CI: 1.01-1.96; others vs adenocarcinoma, HR=2.36, 95% CI: 1.15-4.84;

conclusionA nomogram was successfully constructed based on a multivariable analysis, and the nomogram can discriminate the OS of patients with NSCLC based on risk categories, but external validation is still necessary.
