Impact of retrieved lymph node count on short-term complications in patients with gastric cancer.
Article in World journal of surgical oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundIt is well established that retrieved lymph node (RLN) counts were positively correlated with better overall survival in gastric cancer (GC). But little is known about the relationship between RLN count and short-term complications after radical surgery.
methodsA total of 1487 consecutive GC patients between January 2016 and December 2018 at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate analyses were performed to elucidate the association between RLN count and postoperative complications. We further identified clinical factors that might affect the RLN count.
resultsAmong all of the patients, postoperative complications occurred in 435 (29.3%) patients. The mean RLN count was 25.1, and 864 (58.1%) patients were diagnosed with lymph node metastasis. Univariate analyses showed no significant difference between RLN count and postoperative complications (both overall and stratified by CDC grade). Univariate and multivariate analyses further revealed that type of resection, tumor invasion, and lymph node metastasis were associated with RLN count.
conclusionsThe current study demonstrated that RLN count was not associated with postoperative short-term complications following gastrectomy of GC, which provided a rationale for the determination of a proper RLN count of curative gastrectomy.
