A novel score system for predicting conversion to no evidence of Disease (C-NED) in initially unresectable colorectal cancer liver metastases.

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
An estimated 70-80% of cases of colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM) are defined as initially unresectable. "Converting" to no evidence of disease (NED) status may prolong survival. The current study aimed to develop a novel scoring system that predicts the conversion outcome for initially unresectable CRLM. A total of 215 consecutive CRLM patients who received first-line systemic therapy from December 2012 to January 2020 at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center were enrolled in the internal cohort. Forty CRLM patients from the database of the Chinese Colorectal Cancer Multidisciplinary Team Alliance were enrolled in the external cohort. A logistic regression model was applied to identify risk factors associated with the conversion outcome. The tumor-to-liver volume ratio (TLVR) was calculated as the total tumor volume divided by the total liver volume, and its cutoff value was 0.23. Three predictors of conversion failure were identified in the internal cohort and incorporated into the C-NED score: poor tumor differentiation (1 point), number of liver metastases > 8 (1 point) and TLVR ≥ 0.23 (1 point). The conversion rate was significantly negatively associated with the C-NED score (
