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

Esophageal cancer is a common malignancy worldwide and a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Definitive concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) has been widely used to treat locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In this study, we evaluated the predictive power of a 35-gene mutation profile and radiation parameters in patients with ESCC. Data from 44 patients with ESCC who underwent definitive CCRT were retrospectively reviewed. A 35-gene mutation profile, derived from reported ESCC-specific next-generation sequencing results, and radiation dosimetry parameters were examined using the Kaplan-Meier curve and Cox proportional hazards model. All patients were native Chinese and underwent CCRT with a median follow-up time of 22.0 months. Significant prognostic factors affecting progression-free survival in the multivariable Cox regression model were clinical nodal staging ≥2 (hazard ratio, HR: 2.52, 95% CI: 1.15-5.54,
