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

purposeAs a kind of secondary tumor of the ovary, ovarian metastasis from colorectal cancer (OMCRC) happens rarely. Prognostic factors of OMCRC are still undetermined. This study was conducted to analyze clinical characteristics and prognostic factors of OMCRC patients.

methodsData of patients with OMCRC were collected retrospectively from four large-capacity hospitals in China. Kaplan-Meier method was applied to estimate disease-specific overall survival (OS), and multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify prognostic factors. A novel nomogram was developed to estimate individual survival probability, whose performance was internally validated using concordance index (C-index) and calibration curve.

resultsTotally, 162 cases were eligible, with a median age at diagnosis of 49 years old. The median size of ovarian metastases was 9.0 cm (95% CI: 8.5-10.4 cm). 93.8% of patients received surgery of ovarian metastases. Median time from CRC diagnosis to metachronous ovarian metastasis was 13.0 months (95% CI: 13.5-17.7 months). Median OS after ovarian metastasis diagnosis was 26.0 months (95% CI: 22.3-29.7 months). Integrating univariate and multivariate analyses, eight factors (including age, menopausal status, primary tumor location, N stage of primary tumor, surgery of primary tumor, differentiation grade, bilateral metastasis, and systemic chemotherapy) were used to develop a novel nomogram, with a C-index of 0.65 (95% CI: 0.595-0.705). Calibration curves indicated relatively good agreement between predicted and actual survival.

conclusionsThis nomogram could be a promising tool to help clinicians to estimate individual survival outcome of patients with OMCRC. Further study is warranted to validate the practicality of this model.
