Prognostic Factors Influencing Survival Rate of Patients Operated for Prostate-Related Metastatic Spinal Cord Compression (MSCC).
Article in Indian 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 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Prostate-related metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC) accounts for 50% of all MSCC cases and constitute an oncological emergency. Metastatic spread has a detrimental impact on patient quality of life and the whole management strategy. We sought to identify the prognostic factors influencing the survival rate of patients operated for prostate-related MSCC. Sixty medical records of patients operated for prostate-related MSCC were selected from January 2002 to December 2014 in the Neurosurgery Department, Yopougon Teaching Hospital, Abidjan, Ivory Coast. Tokuhashi and Karnofsky scales were used to assess prognostic scores. Survival curves were generated using the Kaplan-Meier, and we used the log rank analysis for statistical comparison with a statistical significance threshold
