Regional lymph node involvement is associated with poorer survivorship in patients with upper extremity osteosarcoma than with lower extremity osteosarcoma: a SEER analysis.
Article in Translational cancer research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundAlthough the upper limb is the second most common site of osteosarcoma, investigations into clinical manifestation differences between upper and lower limb patients are still sporadic. We retrospectively investigated the characteristics of these patients to gain a better understanding of the differences between upper and lower limb osteosarcoma patients.
methodsThis retrospective study involved patients diagnosed with extremity osteosarcoma between 1997 and 2016 collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Patient characteristics were analyzed with
resultsIn total, 1,882 patients, 1,588 (84.4%) with lower limb lesions and 294 (15.6%) with upper limb lesions were enrolled in our study. The patients with upper limb osteosarcoma exhibited poorer 5-year overall survival (OS) than patients with lower limb osteosarcoma (54.8%
conclusionsUpper limb osteosarcoma patients are characterized by more lymph node involvement than lower limb patients, leading to poorer OS. In addition, upper limb patients are at greater risk for both lymph node involvement and distal metastasis. Our results suggest that upper limb patients should be screened more thoroughly for regional lymph node involvement.
