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

Objective: The purpose of Method: Clinical, social, and pathological data from 6016 patients with chRCC collected from the SEER database were screened from 2004 to 2015. They were randomly assigned to a training cohort (n = 4212) and a validation cohort (n = 1804) at a 7:3 ratio. Cox regression and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) analyses were used to identify the prognostic factors affecting overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) and establish nomograms. Their performance was validated internally and externally by calculating Harrell's C-indexes, area under the curve (AUC), calibration, and decision curves. For external validation, samples from postoperative patients with chRCC at 3 independent centers in Xuzhou, China, were collected. Risk stratification models were built according to the total scores of each patient. Kaplan-Meier curves were generated for the low-risk, intermediate-risk, and high-risk groups to evaluate survival. Results: The C-indexes, AUC curves, and decision curves revealed the high ability of the nomograms in predicting OS and CSS, overall better than that of AJCC and TNM staging. Moreover, in internal and external validation, the calibration curves of 5-, 8-, and 10-year OS agreed with the actual survival. Kaplan-Meier curves indicated significant differences in survival rates among the 3 risk groups in OS or CSS. Conclusion: The nomograms showed favourable predictive power for OS and CSS. Thus, they should contribute to evaluating the prognosis of patients with chRCC. Furthermore, the risk stratification models established on the nomograms can guide the prognosis of patients and further treatment.
