Neoadjuvant therapy does not adversely affect the short-term outcome of critically ill cancer patients who underwent surgery.
Article in Translational cancer research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundThere were conflicting data regarding the effects of neoadjuvant therapy (NT) on the short-term outcomes of critically ill cancer patients. The aim of this study was to investigate whether NT adversely affect the short-term outcomes of critically ill cancer patients who underwent surgery.
methodsThis was a retrospective study which enrolled all critically ill cancer patients who admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College between September 2017 and September 2018. Patients were divided into two groups: NT group and no NT (nNT) group. The primary outcome was ICU mortality rate. Propensity score analysis and Logistic regression analysis were used to investigate risk factors of ICU death.
resultsHundred and twenty-eight patients received NT and 737 patients did not. The ICU mortality was higher in NT group than that in nNT group (3.9%
conclusionsNT was not a risk factor for ICU death in critically ill cancer patients who underwent surgery.
