Long-term survival outcomes of pediatric adrenal malignancies: An analysis with the upstaged SEER registry during 2000-2019.

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
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and long-term survival outcomes of pediatric adrenal malignancies. Method: This study retrospectively analyzed children with pathologically confirmed pediatric adrenal malignancies from Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Database from 2000 to 2019. Kaplan-Meier curve was used to assess the overall survival (OS) and cancer-special survival (CSS), and the Log-Rank method was used to calculate statistical differences. Cox proportional hazards model and Fine-and-Grey model were used to calculate the hazard ratio (HR) of all-cause mortality risk and the sub-distribution HR (sHR) of disease-specific mortality risk, respectively, and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: 1601 children were included in the study in which 1335 (83.4%) neuroblastoma, 151 (9.4%) ganglioneuroblastoma, 89 (5.6%) adrenocortical carcinoma, and 26 (1.6%) were diagnosed with other types malignancies. Metastatic disease accounted for the largest proportion (69.3%), and the proportion of metastases diagnosed by neuroblastoma was higher than that of adrenocortical carcinoma and ganglioneuroblastoma (73.9% vs. 45.7% vs. 47.2%). The 5-year OS and CSS of all cohort were 69.5% and 70.5%, respectively. Adrenal cortical carcinoma had the worst prognosis, with 5-year OS and CSS of 52.5% and 53.1%, respectively. Patients in recent years had no better OS and CSS than in previous years at diagnosis. The tumor stage remained the main prognostic predictor. Compared to metastatic adrenal tumors, the risk of all-cause mortality (adjusted HR: 0.12, 95% CI: 0.06-0.25, Conclusion: The clinicopathological characteristics of pediatric adrenal malignancies have not changed significantly in the past two decades, while the prognosis of patients has improved. Early diagnosis of disease and complete resection of local tumors are the keys to improving prognosis.
