Circulating Cell-Free DNA as a Prognostic Biomarker in Resectable Ampullary Cancer.

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
Circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in ampullary cancer patients was measured to clarify the correlation between cfDNA and clinicopathological factors and the impact of cfDNA on survival outcomes. Patients with ampullary cancer undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy were included. Correlations between cfDNA and clinicopathological and prognostic factors were determined. The cfDNA levels in patients ranged from 1282 to 21,674 copies/mL, with a median of 6687 copies/mL. The cfDNA level was significantly higher in patients with lymph node involvement, lymphovascular invasion, abnormal serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level, and stage II and III cancer. Poor prognostic factors for ampullary cancer included high cfDNA > 6687 copies/mL, lymph node involvement, abnormal serum CEA > 5 ng/mL, and advanced stage II and III cancer. The 1- and 5-year survival rates were 92.0% and 66.5%, respectively, for patients with low cfDNA < 6687 copies/mL and 84.0% and 49.9%, respectively, for patients with high cfDNA > 6687 copies/mL (
