Development and validation of a nomogram to predict overall survival of conjunctival melanoma: a population-based study.

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: Conjunctival melanoma (CM) is a rare, invasive tumor in the eye that readily metastasizes and spreads. Based on some significant clinicopathological information, we aimed to develop a prognostic model to predict the overall survival (OS) of CM patients. Methods: Data of patients diagnosed with CM from 2000 to 2019 were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Significant prognostic factors were extracted and integrated based on competing risk regression to build a nomogram. Harrell's concordance index (C-index), receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and calibration plots were used to evaluate the performance of the nomogram. Results: The study included 272 patients with CM, with a median age of 63 years. A nomogram was developed using age and tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage as variables. The model's C-index was 0.755, and the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.774, 0.812, and 0.815 at 5, 8, and 10 years, respectively. The calibration plot used to predict CM demonstrated good consistency between the predicted OS probability and the actual OS probability. Conclusions: We have developed a nomogram model to predict the OS of patients with CM, which can predict the survival of these patients. The model's prognostic value is higher than that of the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system alone. This tool can help evaluate the tumor-specific prognosis, identify patients at high risk of cancer-specific death, and guide clinical decision-making.
