Associations among healthcare insurance, tumor-node-metastasis stage and cancer survival: More to be understood.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Cancers remain a major health burden with a high mortality rate in China. Basic medical insurance, is the most important element in the financial support system of healthcare resources in both urban and rural areas, and requires further understanding to improve health policy. For instance, a single hospital-based prospective cohort study found that esophageal cancer survival outcomes were associated with different healthcare payment patterns and situations. Comparing the extracted literature-data between urban employee basic medical insurance and urban and rural resident basic medical insurance, the proportions of tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage I-II were 27.1% and 34.6%, while those of TNM stage IV were 35.0% and 26.1%, respectively. Additionally, high out-of-pocket rate (> 60%) of hospitalization was associated with a higher proportion of TNM stage I-II (40.3%
