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
purposeWe aimed to develop a preoperative risk scoring system to predict early recurrence (ER) of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICCA) after resection, utilizing clinical and computed tomography (CT) features. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis multicenter study included 365 patients who underwent curative-intent surgical resection for ICCA at six institutions between 2009 and 2016. Of these, 264 patients from one institution constituted the development cohort, while 101 patients from the other institutions constituted the external validation cohort. Logistic regression models were constructed to predict ER based on preoperative variables and were subsequently translated into a risk scoring system. The discrimination performance of the risk scoring system was validated using external data and compared to the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) TNM staging system.
resultsAmong the 365 patients (mean age, 62±10 years), 153 had ER. A preoperative risk scoring system that incorporated both clinical and CT features demonstrated superior discriminatory performance compared to the postoperative AJCC TNM staging system in both the development (area under the curve [AUC], 0.78 vs. 0.68; p=0.002) and validation cohorts (AUC, 0.69 vs. 0.66; p=0.641). The preoperative risk scoring system effectively stratified patients based on their risk for ER: the 1-year recurrence-free survival rates for the low, intermediate, and high-risk groups were 85.5%, 56.6%, and 15.6%, respectively (p < 0.001) in the development cohort, and 87.5%, 58.5%, and 25.0%, respectively (p < 0.001) in the validation cohort.
conclusionA preoperative risk scoring system that incorporates clinical and CT imaging features was valuable in identifying high-risk patients with ICCA for ER following resection.
