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

introductionOvarian clear cell carcinoma (OCCC) is a subtype of ovarian cancer characterized by highly aggressive and poor prognosis. However, it is unclear what factors are associated with OCCC recurrence and death. The study aimed to evaluate whether residual tumor diameter after primary debulking surgery, or other clinicopathological features play roles in predicting survival outcome in stage II-IV OCCC patients. MATERIAL AND

methodsWe present a retrospective study of OCCC patients with stage II-IV in our department from 2010 to 2015. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw a survival curve. Survival analysis was performed using Log-rank test for univariate analysis and COX proportional risk regression model for multivariate analysis.

resultsIn this cohort of 78 patients who underwent primary debulking surgery, 47 patients had disease recurrence and 32 cases died. On univariate analysis, FIGO stage, residual tumor diameter and ascites were significant predictors of 3-year PFS (P values<0.05) and OS (P values<0.05). On multivariate analysis, the residual tumor diameter was an independent prognostic factor for 3-year PFS and OS (P values<0.05). The outcomes of patients in residual-free group were significantly better than those in the residual tumor diameter 0-1cm and >1cm group (PFS: P=0.000, OS: P=0.001), but there was no significant difference in prognosis between 0-1cm and > 1cm group (P values >0.05). Greater residual tumor diameter predicted progression on cox analysis in patients with stage III, but not for patients with stage IV.

conclusionResidual tumor diameter is prognostic after surgery for OCCC. Achieving no residual disease will significantly improve the prognosis in advanced OCCC patients.
