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

backgroundTo evaluate the feasibility of the use and continuation of sentinel lymph node navigation surgery (SNNS) as an alternative to pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) for patients with preoperatively estimated stage IA endometrial cancer.

methodsThis retrospective study selected the electronic medical records of all patients who had received CT scans and MRI imaging before surgery from April 1, 2009 to March 31, 2021. Sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) were detected by administrating

resultsAmong 137 patients, SLN biopsies with ultrastaging were performed on 91 patients. The SLN detection rate was 95.6%. Over a 59-month median observation period, no statistically significant differences were shown in overall survival, disease-specific survival and disease-free survival between the SNNS and PLND groups when introducing the propensity score method (p-values: 0.06, 0.153, and 0.625, respectively). Our procedure demonstrated that, in our department without recurrence up to the 65th attempt, it was possible to continue SNNS if a recurrence occurs at the 66th attempt.

conclusionThis study suggests the validity of SNNS as an alternative to PLND. Even in the absence of evidence from randomized controlled trials, we can confirm the validity of continuing SNNS using our procedure.
