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
purposeTo developed a model to screen distant metastatic laryngeal carcinoma (DMLC) patients who would benefit from the primary tumor resection.
methodsThe propensity score matching (PSM) was utilized to avoid disproportionate distributions of the confounding factors. We hypothesized that patients who underwent surgery would benefit from surgery by having a longer median cancer-specific survival (CSS) than patients without surgery. Multivariable Cox model was used to explore the independent factors of CSS and overall survival (OS) among PSM population. We used these factors to construct a nomogram to identify surgery benefit patients. The predictive performance and clinical practicability of the nomogram were determined by area under the curve (AUC), calibration curve, and decision curve.
resultsThe CSS and OS for patients who received primary tumor resection were significantly longer than those without resection (median CSS: 19 months vs. 10 months, P = 0.009; median OS: 21 months vs. 10 months, P = 0.001). The nomogram displayed a good degree of discrimination and calibration. The mean AUC of the nomogram was 0.70 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.66-0.76) through threefold cross-validation.
conclusionsA predictive model was established and might be used to screen the optimal candidates for primary tumor surgery in DMLC patients.
