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

objectivesTo investigate the value of

methodsThis was a retrospective analysis of the data of 73 patients with NPC who underwent

resultsThe SUVmax and PLR of patients with disease progression within 5 years were higher than those of patients without disease progression (

conclusionsBoth the SUVmax of the primary tumor and the PLR before treatment have an important influence on the prognosis of NPC. Combining the SUVmax and the PLR can more accurately predict the prognosis of patients with NPC. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: In this study, we evaluated the prognostic value of combining pretreatment tumor
