Prognostic value of the number of lymph nodes resected in patients with lymph-node-negative esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental pathology, 2020. 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
No consensus has been achieved regarding the optimal extent of lymph node (LN) dissection for node-negative ESCC patients. This study aimed to determine the optimal extent of LN dissection for node-negative ESCC patients. We retrospectively reviewed 481 ESCC patients with node-negative resection and no preoperative therapy. Overall survival (OS) was evaluated by the log-rank test and multivariate Cox regression. The 5-year OS was 51.7% and 64.7% for patients with 1-5 and ≥6 negative LNs resected, respectively (
