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

Neuroblastoma is the most common extracranial solid malignancy in children. This study was undertaken to determine the long-term survival of neuroblastoma patients receiving conventional therapeutics (surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy). The neuroblastoma patients examined were registered in the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) database (1975-2016). Using propensity score matching analysis, the patients were paired by record depending on whether they received surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy. Univariate and multivariate analyses of the disease-specific survival of the paired patients were performed by the log-rank test and Cox regression assay. A total of 4568 neuroblastoma patients were included in this study. During 1975-2016, the proportion of histopathological grade III/IV cases receiving surgery gradually increased, while the number of patients with tumors of grade I to IV undergoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy was stable or even decreased. After propensity score analysis, for Grade I + II and Grade III tumors, surgery obviously improved the disease-specific survival of patients, while chemotherapy was unfavorable for patient prognosis, and radiotherapy exerted no obvious effect on the patients. However, no matter what treatment was chosen, the patients with advanced-histopathological-grade tumors had a poor prognosis. Meanwhile, for all histopathological grades, the patients receiving surgery and subsequent chemotherapy or radiotherapy suffered from worsen disease-specific survival than those simply undergoing surgery. Fortunately, the negative effects of surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy improved gradually over time. Surgery improved the long-term survival of the neuroblastoma patients, while chemotherapy and radiotherapy exerted an unfavorable impact on patient outcome. These results provide an important reference for the clinical treatment of neuroblastoma.
