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

Objective: Primary lung carcinomas (LCs) often metastasize to the brain, resulting in a grim prognosis for affected individuals. This population-based study aimed to investigate their survival period and immune status, while also establishing a predictive model. Methods: The records of 86,763 primary LCs from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database were extracted, including 15,180 cases with brain metastasis (BM) and 71,583 without BM. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression were employed to construct a prediction model. Multiple machine learning methods were applied to validate the model. Flow cytometry and ELISA were used to explore the immune status in a real-world cohort. Results: The research findings revealed a 17.49% prevalence of BM from LCs, with a median survival of 8 months, compared with 16 months for their counterparts ( Conclusions: BM from LCs have an inferior prognosis. Considering the substantial impact of these factors, the nomogram model is a valuable tool for guiding clinical decision-making in managing patients with this condition.
