The prognostic value of the number of metastatic lymph nodes on the long-term survival of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma using the SEER database.

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
Background: In the 8 Methods: Data from 658 ICC patients in the SEER database who underwent hepatectomy with LN dissection from 2000 to 2018 were retrospectively reviewed. Hazard ratios (HRs) according to increasing numbers of metastatic LN were calculated. The patients were then divided into three groups according to their metastatic LN numbers (N0: no metastatic LNs; N Results: Metastatic LN number was a prognostic factor of oncologic survival [CSS: HR =1.300; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.225-1.379; P<0.001]. In survival analysis, an increasing number of metastatic LNs was significantly correlated with poorer oncologic outcomes [CSS: N0 Conclusions: Patients with ICC in the SEER database were reaffirmed to have worse prognosis with an increasing number of metastatic LNs.
