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

Glassy cell carcinoma (GCC) is a rare, highly aggressive subtype of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, primarily affecting the cervix but also reported in other anatomical sites such as the lung, pancreas, and uterus. Due to its rarity, little is known about the optimal management and prognostic factors influencing outcomes. This retrospective study utilized the SEER database to analyze 43 confirmed cases of GCC from 1992 to 2021, aiming to clarify demographic, clinical, and treatment-related factors associated with survival. The analysis revealed that GCC primarily affects females (90.7%) with a median age of 43 years, and most commonly arises in the cervix (74.4%). Survival analysis using Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards models indicated that disease stage at diagnosis and age were significant prognostic factors. Specifically, distant-stage disease (HR = 8.44,
