The Role of Tumor Deposits in Predicting the Efficacy of Chemotherapy in Stage III Colon Cancer.
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
purposeTo evaluate the role of tumor deposits (TDs) in predicting the efficacy of chemotherapy in stage III colon cancer.
methodsUsing the SEER
resultsWe have identified 29,017 patients diagnosed with stage III colon cancer from the SEER database. The results of multivariate analyses showed that patients with the receipt of chemotherapy had 54.7% decreased risk of cancer-specific mortality compared with those not (HR = 0.453, 95% CI = 0.425-0.483,
conclusionsOur study demonstrated that the presence of TDs was associated with a dismal prognosis and high number of TDs would also contribute to the worse survival of colon cancer. High number of TDs did not affect the survival benefit of chemotherapy in stage III colon cancer.
