Pan-cancer analysis of the prevalence and associated factors of lung metastasis and the construction of the lung metastatic classification system.

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
This study first presents an analysis of the prevalence and associated factors of the lung metastasis (LM) database and then uses this analysis to construct an LM classification system. Using cancer patient data gathered from the surveillance, epidemiology, and end results (SEER) database, this study shows that the prevalence of LM is not consistent among different cancers; that is, the prevalence of LM ranges from 0.0013 [brain; 95% confidence interval (95% CI); 0.0010-0.0018] to 0.234 ("other digestive organs"; 95% CI; 0.221-0.249). This study finds that advanced age, poor grade, higher tumor or node stage, and metastases including bone, brain, and liver are positively related to LM occurrence, while female gender, income, marital status, and insured status are negatively related. Then, this study generates four categories from 58 cancer types based on prevalence and influence factors and satisfactorily validates these. This classification system reflects the LM risk of different cancers. It can guide individualized treatment and the management of these synchronous metastatic cancer patients and help clinicians better distribute medical resources.
