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

N staging systems are paramount clinical features for colorectal cancer (CRC). In N1 stage (N1) CRC, patients present with a limited number of metastatic lymph nodes, yet their prognoses vary widely. The tumor invasion proportion of lymph nodes (TIPLN) has gained attention, but its prognostic value in N1 CRC remains unclear. We retrospectively analyzed 416 N1 CRC patients who underwent radical surgery from January 2014 to December 2018, reviewing 713 hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained slides to assess TIPLN. Overall survival was the primary outcome in our study. Using restricted cubic splines, we explored the relationship between TIPLN and prognosis, with Cox regression and subgroup analyses adjusting for potential confounders. We found that increased TIPLN was associated with an unfavorable prognosis. At a cut-off value of 50%, patients with high-TIPLN exhibiting poorer outcomes than their low-TIPLN counterparts (hazard ratio: 3.77,
