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

The aim of the current study is to investigate the survival outcome of stage IVB SCNEC of the uterine cervix in comparison to major histological subtypes of cervical cancer. A population-based retrospective cohort study was conducted using the Osaka Cancer Registry data from 1994 to 2018. All FIGO 2009 stage IVB cervical cancer patients who displayed squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), adenocarcinoma (A), adenosquamous cell carcinoma (AS), or small-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (SCNEC) were first identified. The patients were classified into groups according to the types of primary treatment. Then, their survival rates were examined using the Kaplan-Meier method. Overall, in a total of 1158 patients, clearly differential survival rates were observed according to the histological subtypes, and SCNEC was associated with shortest survival. When examined according to the types of primary treatments, SCNEC was associated with significantly decreased survival when compared to SCC or A/AS, except for those treated with surgery. In patients with FIGO 2009 stage IVB cervical cancer, SCNEC was associated with decreased survival when compared to SCC or A/AS. Although current treatments with either surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy have some therapeutic efficacies, to improve the prognosis, novel effective treatments specifically targeting cervical SCNEC need to be developed.
