Dynamic nomogram for long-term survival in patients with locally advanced oropharyngeal cancer after (chemo)radiotherapy.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposeThis study aimed to establish a nomogram for predicting overall survival (OS) in oropharyngeal cancer patients treated with curative (chemo)radiotherapy. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe dynamic nomogram was constructed on 273 patients with oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma treated in a Tertiary Head and Neck Cancer Unit. The clinical features that were previously reported to be associated with OS were analyzed. The performance of the nomogram was assessed using concordance index (C-index) and calibration curves.
resultsThe nomogram incorporated three explanatory variables derived from a decision tree approach including HPV status, N classification according to 8th edition TNM and early response to (chemo)radiotherapy. The nomogram was capable to predict OS with a validation C-index of 0.768. The proposed stratification in risk groups allowed significant distinction between Kaplan-Meier curves for OS outcome (p < 0.0001).
conclusionsThe nomogram provided an accurate evaluation of OS for oropharyngeal cancer patients treated with curative (chemo)radiotherapy.
