Prognostic nomogram for early-stage cervical cancer in the elderly: A SEER database analysis.
Article in Preventive medicine reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: To identify key clinical factors affecting the survival of elderly patients with early-stage cervical cancer and to construct a nomogram for predicting their prognosis. Methods: Patients (aged ≥ 65 years old) diagnosed with cervical cancer between 2004 and 2015 at clinical stages IA to IIA were included in this study. Diagnosis was confirmed via pathological examination, and the cases were randomly divided into a training or a validation group in a 7:3 ratio. Univariate and multivariable Cox regression analyses were performed to identify independent factors affecting the prognosis of elderly early-stage cervical cancer patients, based on which a nomogram was constructed to predict their 12-, 24- and 36-month overall survival (OS). The nomogram's performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves and decision curve analysis (DCA) curves. Results: A total of 686 patients were identified as eligible and assessed. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard regression analysis revealed that age, tumor diameter, marital status and surgical intervention were independent prognostic factors for elderly individuals with early-stage cervical cancer, which were then used to construct the nomogram. The calibration curves showed a strong correlation between predicted and observed survival rates, and Kaplan-Meier survival curves for different risk subgroups demonstrated significant survival differences (P < 0.001). DCA confirmed the nomogram's clinical utility in predicting the prognosis of elderly patients with early-stage cervical cancer. Conclusion: The prognostic model developed in this study can accurately predict the OS of elderly patients with early-stage cervical cancer, showing high concordance with actual clinical outcomes.
