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
backgroundThis study aims to identify the prognostic factors in Stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer and to investigate whether there was a significant difference in terms of overall survival and diseasefree survival among the subgroups belonging to this disease stage.
methodsBetween January 2010 and December 2018, a total of 144 patients (125 males, 19 females; median age 60 years; range, 41 to 80 years) who were operated for non-small cell lung cancer in our clinic and whose pathological stage was reported as IIIA were retrospectively analyzed. Data including demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients, histopathological diagnosis, the standardized uptake value of the mass on positron emission tomography-computed tomography, tumor diameter, type of surgery, lymph node metastasis status, visceral pleural invasion, and overall and disease-free survival rates were recorded.
resultsThe median survival was 39 (range, 27.8 to 46.1) months and the five-year overall survival rate was 28%. The mean tumor diameter was 4.3±2.7 cm. The median disease-free survival was 37 (range, 28.1 to 48.6) months and the five-year disease-free survival rate was 26.9%. In the multivariate analysis, overall survival and disease-free survival in T2N2M0 subgroup were significantly worse than the other subgroups. The other poor prognostic factors of survival were the standardized uptake value of the tumor, pneumonectomy, and histopathological subtypes other than squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. Parietal pleural invasion was significantly associated with worse disease-free survival rates.
conclusionOur results showed that there may be significant survival differences between subgroups created by tumor histopathology, lymph node invasion and the type of surgery in a heterogeneous lung cancer stage.
