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

purposeTumor promote disease progression by reprogramming their metabolism and that of distal organs, so it is of great clinical significance to study the changes in glucose metabolism at different tumor stages and their effect on glucose metabolism in other organs.

methodsA retrospective single-centre study was conducted on 253 NSCLC (non-small cell lung cancer) patients with negative lymph nodes and no distant metastasis. According to the AJCC criteria, the patients were divided into different groups based on tumor size: stage IA, less than 3 cm (group 1, n = 121); stage IB, greater than 3-4 cm (group 2, n = 64); stage IIA, greater than 4-5 cm (group 3, n = 36); and stage IIB, greater than 5-7 cm (group 4, n = 32). All of the patients underwent baseline

resultsIn NSCLC patients, with the increase in the maximum diameter of the tumor, the SUVmax of the primary lesion gradually increased, and the SUVmean of the liver gradually decreased. The primary lesion SUVmax, liver SUVmean, TLR and TSR were related to disease recurrence or death. The best predictive parameters were different when the tumor size differed. SUVmax had the highest efficiency when the tumor size was less than 4 cm (AUC:0.707 (95% CI, 0.430-0.984) tumor size < 3 cm), (AUC:0.726 (95% CI, 0.539-0.912) tumor size 3-4 cm), liver SUVmean had the highest efficiency when the tumor size was 4-5 cm (AUC:0.712 (95% CI, 0.535-0.889)), and TLR had the highest efficiency when the tumor size was 5-7 cm [AUC:0.925 (95%CI, 0.820-1.000)].

conclusionsIn patients with early NSCLC, glucose metabolism reprogramming occurs in the primary lesion and liver. With the increase in tumor size, different metabolic parameters should be selected to evaluate the prognosis of patients.
