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

purposeThis study aimed to evaluate the clinical features and outcomes of osteosarcoma to identify prognostic factors and determine new strategies to improve overall survival. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 12 cases of osteosarcoma treated at our hospital from 2012 to 2017. Tumor site, tissue type, stage, treatments, adverse effects, postoperative limb function, surgical margin, and final outcomes were evaluated.

resultsAll patients received chemotherapy, and 10 underwent wide resection. The Musculoskeletal Tumor Society scores were more than good in all cases, and the 3-year survival rate was 73.3%. Two patients are alive with disease, eight have remained disease-free, and two died of the disease. Three of the four recurrent cases involved the pelvis.

conclusionThe treatment of primary osteosarcoma with wide resection in our department, therefore, yielded favorable outcomes. However, improved treatment strategies are needed for pelvic and advanced cases.
