Survival after Lung Metastasectomy from Esophageal Cancer: Results from a Multi-Institutional Database.
Article in Cancers, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
To clarify the clinical impact and to identify prognostic predictors of surgical intervention for pulmonary metastasis from esophageal cancer, a registry database analysis was performed. From January 2000 to March 2020, patients who underwent resection of pulmonary metastases from primary esophageal cancer at 18 institutions were registered in a database developed by the Metastatic Lung Tumor Study Group of Japan. An amount of 109 cases were reviewed and examined for the prognostic factors for pulmonary metastasectomy of metastases from esophageal cancer. As a result, five-year overall survival after pulmonary metastasectomy was 34.4% and five-year disease-free survival was 22.1%. The multivariate analysis for overall survival revealed that initial recurrence site, maximum tumor size, and duration from primary tumor treatment to lung surgery were selected as the significant prognostic factors (
