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
purposeThe study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) using CyberKnife (CK) in patients with postoperative thoracic oligo-recurrence/metastasis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NLCLC), and to analyze the prognostic factors affecting overall survival after SBRT. PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 44 patients with postoperative thoracic oligo-recurrence/metastatic of NLCLC treated with SBRT were reviewed. Thoracic oligo-recurrence/was defined as 1-3 loco-regional confined to lung lobe, hilar/mediastinal lymph nodes, bronchial stump, or chest wall. Primary endpoints included local control (LC), overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and toxicity. Prognostic factors that affected these patients were analyzed by the univariate and multivariate analysis by Kaplan-Meier methods and Cox regression models, respectively.
resultsThe median follow-up time after salvage SBRT was 48.5 months. Measuring from the date of salvage SBRT, the median OS of the 44 patients was 52.60 (95% CI: 29.59-75.60) months. 1-,3-and 5-year OS rates were 97.7%, 65.3% and 47.7%, respectively. The 1-,3-year and 5-year LC rates were 97.7%, 85.1% and 80.1%, respectively. At 1, 3 and 5 years, the PFS rates were 77.1%, 28.8% and 5.3%, respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that pre-SBRT neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) were independent prognostic factors (p < 0.05). The treatment-related side-effects were well tolerated. No patients developed grade 3 or greater pulmonary toxicity.
conclusionSBRT is a promising salvage therapeutic option for postoperative thoracic oligo-recurrence/metastasis of non-small-cell lung cancer with acceptable toxicity. Low pre-SBRT neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and low Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) were associated with a better prognosis and longer survival and might be considered as reliable and independent prognostic factors in these patients treated with SBRT.
