Prognostic factors, disparity, and equity variables impacting prognosis in bone sarcomas of the hand: SEER database review.
Article in Journal of surgical oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundPrimary sarcomas originating from the bones of hand and wrist are rare but carry a significant burden of morbidity.
methodsNational Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Result database from 1975 to 2017 was queried to report incidence and survival data in 237 patients in the United States. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression were used to determine the prognostic factors affecting survival. χ
resultsIncidence of hand and wrist sarcoma was 0.017 per 100 000 persons in 2017 and has not significantly changed since 1975 (p > 0.05). Disease-specific 5-year and 10-year survival for the entire cohort was 90% and 84%, respectively. On multivariate analysis race "others," histology other than "osteosarcoma," "undifferentiated" grade, and size "≥6 cm" were predictors of worse disease-specific survival. Cross-tabulation of race with other significant prognostic factors on univariate analysis revealed a significant correlation of race with every other significant prognostic factor except for grade.
conclusionsThe current study is an analysis of a population-based registry reporting incidence and survival data for patients with sarcoma of hand and wrist. Independent prognostic factors include race, histology, grade, and size. There is a lack of improvement in survival over the last four decades.
