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

purposeTo assess the prognosis predictive value of semi-quantitative metabolic parameters and tumoral metabolic activity based on

methodsA total of 50 children (25 girls, 25 boys, median age 37 months, range 1-102 months) with newly diagnosed NB, consecutively examined with pretherapeutic

resultsMedian follow-up was 42 months (range 2.5-74 months; 4 patients showed disease progression/relapse, 7 patients died). The univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that bone/bone marrow metastasis [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.051, 18.570, p = 0.043], Tmax/Lmax (95% CI: 1.074, 1.459, p = 0.004) and ASP (95% CI: 2.618, 273.477, p = 0.006) were independent predictors of EFS. The Kaplan Meier survival analyses demonstrated that Tmax/Lmax undefined[Formula: see text]]]>6 and ASP [Formula: see text]undefined]]>34% and with bone/bone marrow metastasis had worse outcomes.
