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: This study aimed to develop and validate a prognostic nomogram to identify uterine sarcoma (US) patients who may not require adjuvant therapy after surgery, based on data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and an external Asian cohort. Methods: Data from eligible uterine sarcoma patients in the USA ( Results: Using the aforementioned classification aggregation methods, analysis of the training cohort identified diagnostic age, Fédération Internationale de Gynécologie et d'Obstétrique (FIGO) stage, grade, tumor size, and peritoneal cytology as independent predictors of overall survival (OS). The subsequent risk model demonstrated that patients with a threshold below 55 had a 10-year survival rate exceeding 80%, suggesting they may not require postoperative adjuvant therapy. Internal validation confirmed the reliability of this multiparameter model, as evidenced by a C-index of 0.77 and ROC AUC values of 0.812, 0.824, and 0.839 for 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS, respectively. Similarly, accuracy and specificity were confirmed by the external validation cohort, with a C-index exceeding 0.83, reaching a peak of 0.9, and ROC AUC values greater than 0.876. These results highlight that the stratified thresholds displayed by our nomogram outperformed FIGO staging in identifying low-risk recurrence patients. Conclusion: Our constructed multiparameter nomogram model appears to be superior to the FIGO staging system in identifying low-risk patients who do not require adjuvant therapy after surgery, although prospective data are required for further validation.
