Development and validation of a prognostic nomogram for patients with stage II colon mucinous adenocarcinoma.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 2022. 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
purposeMucinous histology is generally considered as a risk factor of prognosis in stage II colon cancer, but there is no appropriate model for prognostic evaluation and treatment decision in patients with stage II colon mucinous adenocarcinoma (C-MAC) Thus, it is urgent to develop a comprehensive, individualized evaluation tool to reflect the heterogeneity of stage II C-MAC.
methodsPatients with stage II C-MAC who underwent surgical treatment in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program were enrolled and randomly divided into training cohort (70%) and internal validation cohort (30%). Prognostic predictors which were determined by univariate and multivariate analysis in the training cohort were included in the nomogram. The calibration curves, decision curve analysis, X-tile analysis, and Kaplan-Meier curve of the nomogram were validated in the internal validation cohort.
resultsThree thousand seven hundred sixty-two patients of stage II C-MAC were enrolled. The age, pathological T (pT) stage, tumor number, serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), and perineural invasion (PNI) were independent predictors of overall survival (OS), which were used to establish a nomogram. Calibration curves of the nomogram indicated good consistency between nomogram prediction and actual survival for 1-, 3- and 5-year OS. Besides, patients with stage II C-MAC could be divided into high-, middle-, and low-risk subgroups by the nomogram. Further subgroup analysis indicated that patients in the high-risk group could have a survival benefit from chemotherapy after surgical treatment.
conclusionsWe established the first nomogram to accurately predict the survival of stage II C-MAC patients who underwent surgical treatment. In addition, the nomogram identified low-, middle-, and high-risk subgroups of patients and found chemotherapy might improve survival in the high-risk subgroup of stage II C-MAC patients.
