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: Patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) have a poor prognosis for distant metastasis. Currently, there are no studies on predictive models for the risk of distant metastasis in GEP-NETs. Methods: In this study, risk factors associated with metastasis in patients with GEP-NETs in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression, and a nomogram model for metastasis risk prediction was constructed. Prognostic factors associated with distant metastasis in patients with GEP-NETs were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox, and a nomogram model for prognostic prediction was constructed. Finally, the performance of the nomogram model predictions is validated by internal validation set and external validation set. Results: A total of 9145 patients with GEP-NETs were enrolled in this study. Univariate and multivariate logistic analysis demonstrated that T stage, N stage, tumor size, primary site, and histologic types independent risk factors associated with distant metastasis in GEP-NETs patients (p value < 0.05). Univariate and multivariate Cox analyses demonstrated that age, histologic type, tumor size, N stage, and primary site surgery were independent factors associated with the prognosis of patients with GEP-NETs (p value < 0.05). The nomogram model constructed based on metastasis risk factors and prognostic factors can predict the occurrence of metastasis and patient prognosis of GEP-NETs very effectively in the internal training and validation sets as well as in the external validation set. Conclusion: In conclusion, we constructed a new distant metastasis risk nomogram model and a new prognostic nomogram model for GEP-NETs patients, which provides a decision-making reference for individualized treatment of clinical patients.
