Clinical Characteristics and Prognostic Analysis of Gynecologic Cancer with Spinal Metastases: A Single-Center Retrospective Study.
Article in Cancer management and research, 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
objectiveThe purpose of this study is to provide key information on the clinical characteristics, surgical treatment, and potential prognostic factors in patients with metastatic spinal gynecologic cancer (MSGC), with a view to their application in clinical practice.
methodsFrom January 2010 to January 2020, we performed a retrospective analysis of 14 patients with MSGC who underwent surgical treatment in a single center. Surgical treatment was performed on 14 patients, and a total of 14 operations were performed. The survival time of patients after spinal surgery was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analysis.
resultsThe average age of patients was 51.9 years (range 25‒70). The average time from initial surgery to the discovery of spinal metastasis was 60.3 months (2‒180), and the average follow-up time was 19.2 months (2‒55). Spinal tumor progression was found in 9 patients, and 12 patients (85.7%) died during follow-up. In univariate analysis, extraosseous visceral metastasis (p = 0.024), revised Tokuhashi stage (p = 0.025), Tomita stage (p = 0.005), and number of spinal lesions (p = 0.038) were associated with overall survival (OS). Extraosseous visceral metastasis (p = 0.026), revised Tokuhashi stage (p = 0.014), Tomita stage (p = 0.001), and gynecological cancer type (p = 0.039) were associated with progression-free survival.
conclusionSurgical treatment is an effective treatment for MSGC and relieves pain, restores function and rebuilds stability. Based on our single-center experience, extraosseous visceral metastasis, revised Tokuhashi stage, Tomita stage, and gynecological cancer type may be potential prognostic factors for OS.
