Survival of Patients with Sinonasal Cancers in a Population-Based Registry, Lombardy, Italy, 2008-2023.
Article in Cancers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Sinonasal cancers (SNCs) are rare malignancies associated with occupational exposures. The aim of this study was to analyse the survival of SNC patients using data from the population-based SNC registry of the Lombardy region (10 million people), Italy. We included epithelial SNC cases registered in 2008-2020 and followed-up for vital status until 31 July 2023. Multivariate flexible parametric models with time-dependent covariates were fitted to calculate excess hazard ratios (EHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of death. Based on 827 cases (553 males, 274 females) and 514 deaths (345 males, 169 females), the 5-year observed survival was 49% and the net survival was 57%. Age had a substantial impact on survival, particularly within the first year (EHR, 1.35; 95% CI, 1.12-1.51 per 10 years). Compared with the nasal cavity, the EHR for paranasal sinuses was 4.70 (95% CI, 2.96-7.47) soon after diagnosis. Compared with squamous cell carcinomas, the EHR was 0.69 (95% CI, 0.52-0.91) for adenocarcinomas, 1.68 (95% CI, 1.20-2.35) for undifferentiated and unspecified carcinomas, and 1.78 (95% CI, 1.07-2.95) for neuroendocrine carcinomas. Age and cancer site showed time-dependent effects on prognosis, especially within the first month after diagnosis. Prognosis was also markedly affected by cancer morphology. No associations were found for gender and period of diagnosis.
