1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveTo analyze the factors contributing to recurrence in patients with pT

methodsPatients with pT

resultsA total of 692 patients were included. The median follow-up was 53 months (range: 3-107). The 3- and 5-year TR, LR, and DM rates were 35.8% and 41.0%, 28.7% and 32.1%, and 16.8% and 21.1%, respectively. The Cox analyses showed that the tumor location, number of dissected lymph nodes, and postoperative therapies were significantly associated with LR. The subgroup analysis showed that postoperative therapies could significantly decrease LR in the mediastinum but not in the neck and upper abdomen regions.

conclusionsThe recurrence rate of pT
