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
objectivesIn patients undergoing a radical hysterectomy, uterine corpus invasion worsens cervical cancer prognosis. However, the prognostic role of the invasion in locally advanced stages remains elusive. Due to the inadequacy of typical corpus biopsies, corpus invasion is diagnosed using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In this study, we investigated the prognostic role of MRI-detected uterine corpus invasion in patients undergoing radiotherapy for cervical cancer.
methodsThis retrospective analysis involved 259 patients without extrapelvic metastases, diagnosed with FIGO 2009 stages IB-IVA cervical carcinoma from January 2011 to December 2020. The corpus invasion extent was classified as exocervical-confined (group 1), endocervical (group 2), or uterine corpus invasion (group 3). The rates of overall survival, cancer-specific survival, locoregional recurrence, para-aortic lymph node recurrence, and extrapelvic metastases after pelvic radiotherapy were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression analyses were used to determine recurrence-associated risks. Optimal risk stratification was predicted using a receiver operating characteristic curve with the area under the curve.
resultsGroups 1, 2, and 3 included 66.0%, 18.9%, and 15.1% of patients, respectively. The 5-year para-aortic lymph node recurrence rates were 6.3%, 17.2%, and 34.2% (
conclusionsIn cervical cancer, following pelvic radiotherapy, uterine corpus invasion is a significant prognostic factor. More-aggressive treatments such as extended-field radiotherapy, adjuvant chemotherapy, and immune checkpoint inhibitors as an alternative to standard pelvic radiotherapy with concurrent chemotherapy may be considered in these patients.
