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

backgroundFew reports have investigated the effect of primary tumor resection on lung metastasis and prognosis in patients with bone and soft-tissue sarcoma, and we evaluated its effect on lung metastasis and prognosis. PATIENTS AND

methodsWe retrospectively identified patients with lung metastasis from bone and soft-tissue sarcoma. We examined the factors affecting prognosis and the rate of lung metastasis increase.

resultsA total of 48 patients were included. The multivariate analysis revealed that poor prognosis was significantly associated with a large maximum diameter of lung metastasis at the first visit and a rapid rate of increase (p=0.0400 and p=0.0003, respectively). The multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the rate of increase of size of lung metastases was only significantly associated with a large maximum diameter at the first visit (p=0.0245).

conclusionPrimary tumor resection of bone and soft-tissue sarcoma in patients with lung metastasis was not shown to affect their prognosis.
