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

purposeStage IIIC1 cervical cancer showed heterogeneous in oncologic outcomes with highly variable survival rates. Our objective was to determine the prognostic significance of removed and metastatic pelvic lymph node status and further perform risk stratification in patients with stage IIIC1p cervical cancer. PATIENTS AND

methodsPatients with stage IIIC1p cervical cancer and undergoing radical hysterectomy with lymphadenectomy in 2008-2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients' stage was classified using the revised 2018 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging schema. Univariate and multivariable models were used to examine the association between removed and metastatic lymph node status and recurrence-free survival/overall survival.

resultsDuring a median follow-up of 34 months, 73 relapses and 44 deaths were observed among 273 patients with stage IIIC1p cervical cancer. Parametrial involvement and metastatic lymph node ratio (mLNR) were identified as independent predictors for recurrence-free survival. Parametrial involvement and mLNR were independent predictors for overall survival. A stratification system was then created based on parametrial involvement and mLNR. A total of 123 (45.1%), 127 (46.5%) and 23 (8.4%) patients were classified into the low-risk, intermediate-risk, and high-risk groups, with as a 5-year recurrence-free survival of 81.7%, 51.1%, 38%, respectively. Compared to the low-risk group, the intermediate- and high-risk groups had a significantly greater risk of recurrence and death.

conclusionThe prognosis of stage IIIC1p patients varied significantly. A risk stratification system based on parametrial involvement and mLNR successfully separated patients into low, intermediate, and high-risk group. Our findings could facilitate the practical use of further stratification in Stage IIIC1p cervical cancer.
