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

Esophageal cancer (EC) is a deadly cancer that frequently develops multiple primary cancers (MPCs). However, the risk biomarkers of MPC in EC have hardly been investigated. We retrospectively enrolled 920 subjects with primary EC and analyzed the possible risk factors as well as MPC single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from blood DNA. A total of 184 subjects (20.0%) were confirmed to have MPC, 59 (32.8%) had synchronous MPC, and 128 (69.6%) had head and neck cancer. Elderly EC patients have an increased risk of having gastrointestinal cancer (Odds ratio, OR[95% CI]=6.70 [1.49-30.19],
