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

objectiveDespite the recent release of the 8th edition TNM staging system, the risk stratification for poorly differentiated thyroid cancer (PDTC) remains controversial. STUDY

designRetrospective study.

settingSEER database and the First Hospital of China Medical University (FHCMU) database.

methodsBetween 2004 and 2015, 1201 PDTC patients from the SEER database were enrolled to propose a new staging system. 38 PDTC patients were included from the FHCMU.

resultsA retrospective analysis of 1201 PDTC cases was performed, and a new staging classification was developed as follows: stage I: age < 55 and T1/any N/M0 (n = 127, 10.57%); stage II: age < 55 and T2-4/any N/M0 or age ≥ 55 and T1-2/any N/M0 (n = 523, 43.55%); stage III: age < 55 and any T/N0/M1 or age ≥ 55 and any T3/any N/M0 (n = 239, 19.90%); stage IV: age < 55 and any T/N1/M1 or age ≥ 55 and T4/any N/M0, and T/any N/M1 (n = 312, 25.98%). The 10-year disease-specific survival rates of patients in the new stages I, II, III, and IV were 97.9%, 77.9%, 35.3%, and 12.1%, respectively. The proportion of variation explained (PVE) for disease-specific survival of the proposed system was higher than that of the 8th AJCC TNM staging (30.61% vs. 27.15%). The accuracy of the staging system was verified in 38 PDTC patients from the FHCMU.

conclusionThe proposed staging system provided a more accurate risk stratification for PDTC patients. The new staging model may facilitate the design of personalized treatment strategies for PDTC patients.
