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

backgroundExtramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is a common subtype of Paget's disease. Still, there are lacking reports concerning its clinical features, treatment options, and prognosis.

methodsThe Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database was queried for the patients diagnosed with mammary Paget's disease (MPD) or EMPD from 1975 to 2016. Subsequent analysis was conducted to explore incidence rate, tumor characteristics, clinical features, and survival.

resultsA total of 1,848 patients with EMPD and 7,106 patients with MPD were retrieved from the SEER database and included in this study. The demographics of EMPD and MPD were significantly different. Compared with MPD, EMPD had better cancer-specific survival (CSS) but worse overall survival (OS). For EMPD, age (P<0.001), male (P=0.006), chemotherapy (P=0.002), poorly differentiated and undifferentiated grade (both P<0.001) and tumor metastasis (regional: P=0.019; distant: P<0.001) were independent negative prognostic indicators. Survival analysis revealed that surgery could improve both CSS and OS for EMPD (both P<0.001). However, neither radiotherapy (P=0.013 and P<0.001) nor chemotherapy (P=0.007 and P<0.001) did not exhibit favorable prognostic benefit.

conclusionsEMPD had distinct clinical features from MPD. Age, gender, chemotherapy, tumor grade and stage are independent prognostic factors for EMPD. While surgery's protective role was supported, radiotherapy and chemotherapy could be unfavorable treatments concerning EMPD prognosis.
