Article in Annals of surgical oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundPreoperative fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography ( PATIENTS AND
methodsWe retrospectively evaluated patients with resectable TETs who were preoperatively assessed using
resultsOur study included 177 patients; 145 (81.9%) had pathological early-stage TET (stage I or II), and 32 (19.1%) had advanced stage (stage III or IV). The area under the curve value for predicting the advanced stage was 0.903, and the cutoff value was 5.6 (sensitivity 81.3%, specificity 84.8%). SUVmax > 5.6 was associated with worse prognosis for RFS/PFS. LN metastasis was preoperatively detected by FDG uptake in 30.8% of patients with pathological LN positivity, whereas LN metastasis was not pathologically detected in patients with SUVmax < 5.9. In patients with advanced-stage TETs, LN recurrence was more frequent in patients who were preoperatively detected by
