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

backgroundThe lymph-node staging system can predict the prognosis of gastric signet-ring-cell carcinoma (SRCC). However, there are significant differences in lymph-node status between early SRCC and advanced SRCC. Additionally, the optimal system for early and advanced SRCC remains unknown.

methodsThis study retrospectively analyzed 693 SRCC patients who underwent radical resection in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Harbin Medical University Cancer Hospital. The predicted performance of three lymph-node staging systems, including pN staging, lymph-node metastasis rate (LNR), and log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS), was compared using the receiver characteristic operating curve (ROC) and c-index. The Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test analyzed the overall survival of patients. The Cox risk regression model identified independent risk factors associated with patient outcomes. The nomogram was made by R studio.

resultsThe 693 SRCC included 165 early SRCC and 528 advanced SRCC. ROC showed that LODDS had better predictive performance than pN and LNR in predicting prognosis regardless of early or advanced SRCC. LODDS can be used to predict the prognosis of early and advanced SRCC and was an independent risk factor associated with patient outcomes (

conclusionsLODDS showed clear prognostic superiority over both pN and LNR in early and advanced SRCC.
