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

Background: The lymph node (LN) is one of the main sites of recurrence in patients with endometrial carcinoma (EC). Literature specifically analyzing LN recurrence (LNR) in EC remains limited in number. Methods: Patients with EC undergoing surgery between 2006 and 2021 in Peking University People's Hospital was included, clinicopathological data of whom were collected and analyzed retrospectively by R 4.0.3. Results: A total of 792 patients were included, with 73 patients having recurrence, among whom 21 patients had LNR. Median recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with LNR was 16 [4-39] months. LNR was extensive, with pelvic LNs most commonly involved (9/21). There are various patterns of LNR, with 33.3% (7/21) LN-only recurrence. Multivariable analysis suggested advanced stage, larger tumor diameter and poor histology were independent risk factors for LNR. Patients with LN metastasis (LNM) diagnosed at initial treatment accounted for 47.6% (10/21) of cases with LNR, 60.0% (6/10) of whom had recurrent LNs beyond the region of LNM, 90.0% (9/10) of whom had recurrence nodes overlapping with the range of lymphadenectomy. Uni- and multi-variable analysis suggested lymphadenectomy was not a protective factor for LNR, with both the range and number of LNs harvested considered. Conclusions: LNR is common in patients with EC, with an extensive range and various patterns of recurrence. The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, tumor diameter and histology were independent risk factors for LNR, but lymphadenectomy seemed not a protective factor for LNR.
