Development and Validation of a Prognostic Nomogram Based on Residual Tumor in Patients With Nondisseminated Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma.
Article in Technology in cancer research & treatment. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
objectivesTo investigate the prognostic value of residual tumor based on Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) and establish an effective prognostic nomogram model referring to clinical,pathological and other related factors for predicting prognosis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
methodsOverall, 538 patients with non-metastatic, histologically-confirmed nasopharyngeal carcinoma were retrospectively examined. Data from 397 patients were used for the construction and validation of a nomogram based on the presence of residual tumor. A concordance index (C-index) was employed to assess the predictive accuracy and discriminative ability of the nomogram.
resultsThe 3-year survival rates in the non-residual and residual tumor cohorts were as follows: progression-free survival, 73.4% vs. 61.0%, P = 0.009; locoregional recurrence-free survival, 81.9% vs. 72.0%, P = 0.02; and distant metastasis-free survival, 80.7% vs. 73.5%, P = 0.11. Nine significant factors were included in the nomogram model. The calibration curve for the probability of progression-free survival showed that the nomogram-based predictive values had good concordance with the actual observations.
conclusionThe results showed that the patients in the residual tumor cohorts had a worse prognosis.The proposed nomogram may predict the prognosis and guide clinical decision-making concerning local residual tumors in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients. Patients with a high risk of progression require more timely and aggressive treatment.
