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

Introduction: The survival outcome of lung cancer patients with end-stage renal disease has been poorly studied in the literature. In this study, we evaluated the effect of end-stage renal disease on lung cancer survival. Material and methods: A retrospective, multicenter, matched-cohort study of lung cancer patients with end-stage renal disease under renal replacement therapy (WITH-ESRD) and without end-stage renal disease (WITHOUT-ESRD) was performed. One WITH-ESRD patient was matched to four WITHOUT-ESRD patients. Results: Baseline clinical characteristics did not differ statistically significantly after matching between the WITH-ESRD and WITHOUT-ESRD groups. WITH-ESRD included 133 patients and WITHOUT-ESRD included 532 patients. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis demonstrated no significant difference in median overall survival between WITH-ESRD patients and WITHOUT-ESRD patients (7.36 months versus 12.25 months, respectively, Conclusions: In our limited experience, the survival for lung cancer with ESRD is not inferior to lung cancer patients without ESRD. The reasons for poor survival for the WITH-ESRD medical treatment group and late diagnosis despite frequent medical visits merit further investigation.
