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

backgroundThe presence of liver metastasis (LM) is an independent prognostic factor for shorter survival in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The median overall survival of patients with involvement of the liver is less than 5 mo. At present, identifying prognostic factors and constructing survival prediction nomogram for NSCLC patients with LM (NSCLC-LM) are highly desirable.

aimTo build a forecasting model to predict the survival time of NSCLC-LM patients.

methodsData on NSCLC-LM patients were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database between 2010 and 2018. Joinpoint analysis was used to estimate the incidence trend of NSCLC-LM. Kaplan-Meier curves were constructed to assess survival time. Cox regression was applied to select the independent prognostic predictors of cancer-specific survival (CSS). A nomogram was established and its prognostic performance was evaluated.

resultsThe age-adjusted incidence of NSCLC-LM increased from 22.7 per 1000000 in 2010 to 25.2 in 2013, and then declined to 22.1 in 2018. According to the multivariable Cox regression analysis of the training set, age, marital status, sex, race, histological type, T stage, metastatic pattern, and whether the patient received chemotherapy or not were identified as independent prognostic factors for CSS (

conclusionWe designed a nomogram model and further constructed a novel risk classification system based on easily accessible clinical factors which demonstrated excellent performance to predict the individual CSS of NSCLC-LM patients.
