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

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the recurrence rate and related risk factors of primary fallopian tube cancer (PFTC). Materials and Methods: We conducted a retrospective study of 47 patients with histopathological diagnosis of PFTC treated at Tu Du Hospital between January 1, 2015, and July 31, 2022. The cumulative recurrence rate was estimated using the life table method, and recurrence-associated factors were determined using the Log-rank test and Cox proportional hazard model. Results: The median follow-up period was 40 months (range, 7-96 months). Eight patients (17.0%) experienced recurrence. The cumulative recurrence rate of PFTC patients at 12 months was 4.4% (95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.12-16.45), at 24 months was 9.1% (95% CI: 3.52-22.5), at 36 months was 14.9% (95% CI: 6.92-30.41), at 48 months was 19.3% (95% CI: 9.35-37.24), and at 60 months was 25.7% (95% CI: 12.68-47.88). A higher recurrence rate was significantly associated with elevated pretreatment CA 125 level (<35 U/mL vs. ≥35 U/mL, hazards ratio [HR] = 36.9, 95% CI: 1.47-921.37), advanced FIGO stages (Stage I-II vs. stages III, HR = 6.61, 95% CI: 1.18-36.93), and suboptimal debulking surgery (residual disease ≤1 cm vs. residual disease >1 cm, HR = 7.52, 95% CI: 1.47-38.49). Conclusion: The overall recurrence rate of PFTC patients in Southern Vietnam was 17.0%. Appropriate follow-up strategies for patients with high-risk factors are needed for early detection and management of recurrence.
