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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe objective of this study was to construct and authenticate nomograms to project overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in primary gastrointestinal non-Hodgkin lymphomas (PGINHL).

methodsSuitable patients were chosen from the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results database and Wannan Medical College Yijishan Hospital. The Cox regression model was used to acquire independent predictive factors to develop nomograms for projecting OS and CSS. The performance of the nomograms was validated using the Harrell's concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA) and was compared with that of the AJCC 7th staging system. Survival curves were obtained using the Kaplan-Meier method, while the log-rank test was used to compare the difference among the groups.

resultsThe C-index of the nomograms for OS and CSS was 0.735 (95% CI = 0.719-0.751) and 0.761 (95% CI = 0.739-0.783), respectively, signifying substantial predictive accuracy. These outcomes were reproducible when the nomograms were used for the internal and external validation cohorts. Moreover, assessments of the C-index, AUC, and DCA between the nomogram results and the AJCC 7th staging system showed that the former was better for evaluation and was more clinically useful.

conclusionsWe constructed the nomogram which could predict 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS and CSS of patients with PGINHL. Our nomogram showed good performance, suggesting that it can be used as an efficacious instrument for predictive assessment of patients with PGINHL.
