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

objectiveTo determine the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of women with recurrent uterine leiomyosarcoma (uLMS).

methodsWe conducted a retrospective cohort study to evaluate the clinical characteristics and survival of women with recurrent uLMS and identify prognostic factors.

resultsOverall, 71 patients with first recurrence of uLMS were included in our study. 19 patients (26.8%) received systemic therapy and 52 patients (73.2%) received secondary cytoreductive surgery (SCS). In SCS subgroup (n = 52), a complete resection with no residual disease was performed in 47 patients (90.4%). 38.5% (20/52) patients received non-reproductive organ surgeries. 10 (19.2%) patients had received thoracic surgery because of lung-only recurrence. Bowel, bladder surgery was performed in 8 (15.4%), 3 (5.8%) patients, respectively. 1 (1.9%) patient had received liver surgery. The median follow-up duration was 38.7 months (range: 2.7-317.6 months). 41 (57.7%) patients died during follow-up. 5-year OS for the entire cohort was 52.9%. Patients experienced first recurrence after initial diagnoses within 12 months (n = 24) had a worse 5-year OS than those after 12 months (n = 47) (17.0% vs. 69.1%, P < 0.001). 5-year OS for the SCS and non-SCS subgroup was 62.0% and 28.0%, respectively (P < 0.001). Multivariate analysis showed time to fist recurrence within 12 months (HR = 4.60, 95% CI: 1.49-14.4, P = 0.008) was an independent predictor of decreased 5-year OS in SCS subgroup.

conclusionsSCS is an important treatment choice for recurrent uLMS and seems to have benefited patients. Time to fist recurrence within 12 months is an independent predictor of decreased 5-year OS in SCS subgroup.
