Association between Moving to a High-Volume Hospital in the Capital Area and the Mortality among Patients with Cancer: A Large Population-Based Cohort Study.

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
This study aimed to identify the association between moving to a high-volume hospital and the mortality of patients with cancer living in the district. The study population comprised participants diagnosed with cancer within the past nine years (2004-2012). The final sample included 8197 patients with cancer, 3939 were males (48.1%), and 4258 were females (51.9%). A Cox proportional hazard model was used to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) for death. Confounding variables including sex, age, type of social security, income level, disability, and utilization volume were incorporated into the model. Among patients with cancer living in the district, 2874 (35.1%) used healthcare services in Seoul. About 10% (
