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

Background: Venous system invasion is a prominent characteristic of local progression in renal cancer and treatment-naïve renal cancer patients with venous tumor thrombus (VTT) gained short natural course and poor prognosis. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of the surgery and prognostic factors in non-metastatic renal cancer patients with VTT and to construct a nomogram prognostic model. Methods: Clinical data of 114 non-metastatic renal cancer patients with VTT who underwent surgical treatment from January 2011 to September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. In order to find independent risk factors of prognosis, survival analysis was performed via univariate and multivariate Cox regression models and Kaplan-Meier method. Nomogram prognostic model was established to calculate patients' risk scores. Receiver operating characteristic curve and decision curve analysis were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the prognostic model. Results: A total of 114 patients were included in this study and there were 48, 12, 25, 23, and 6 cases of grade 0-IV VTT. No perioperative death occurred. The 3-year probabilities of overall survival (OS) and 5-year probabilities of OS were 67% and 43.8%, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that kidney tumor diameter, preoperative lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and preoperative neutrophils were independent risk factors. Nomogram was constructed to predict prognosis in renal cancer patients with VTT based on above indicators and Mayo VTT grading. The area under the ROC curve of 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year OS of the patients were 0.82, 0.67, 0.57, and 0.55 respectively. Conclusions: Surgical treatment enables renal cancer patients with VTT to gain a better prognosis. Kidney tumor diameter, preoperative LDH, and preoperative neutrophils were independent risk factors. The nomogram perfects the Mayo grading, and provides a reliable reference for evaluation of prognosis of renal cancer patients with VTT.
