Prognostic Significance of Regional/Systemic Metabolic Parameters on
Article in Frontiers in oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPulmonary lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma (LELC) is a rare subtype of lung cancer with less than 700 cases being reported in the literature, and no specialized treatment guidelines have been established. The prognostic significance of metabolic parameters on
methodsFrom July 2011 to September 2020, 76 pulmonary LELC patients undergoing pre-treatment
resultsTumor stage, pre-/post-treatment serum EBV-DNA copies, SUVmax (cutoff 17.5), MTV, and TLG were significantly associated with PFS and OS in univariate analysis. MTV and TLG (AUC = 0.862 and 0.857, respectively) showed significantly higher predictive value than SUVmax (AUC = 0.754) and remained independent prognostic indicators for PFS in multivariate analysis (P = 0.026 and 0.019, respectively). Besides, non-colinearity was detected between metabolic burdens of the different regional lesions. MTV
conclusionThe study demonstrated that MTV and TLG had independent prognostic significance for pulmonary LELC, which supported the incorporation of
