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

objectiveTo assess the association between postoperative chemotherapy and the prognosis of patients with stage I ovarian clear cell carcinoma.

methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study of patients with stage I ovarian clear cell carcinoma who underwent surgery, including hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, between 2005 and 2019 at 11 affiliated institutions. Patients with preoperative lymph node enlargement, and those who underwent fertility-sparing surgery were excluded. The primary outcome was disease-free survival and overall survival, and was investigated as a secondary outcome. We used propensity score overlap weighting to adjust for confounding factors and estimated the adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs for the disease-free and overall survival of patients in the control group that did not receive chemotherapy and in the platinum-based multiagent chemotherapy group during the follow-up period.

resultsIn total, 283 patients (64 in the control group and 219 in the chemotherapy group) were included. Five-year disease-free survival was 0.77 (95% CI, 0.66-0.89) in the control group and 0.86 (95% CI, 0.81-0.91) in the chemotherapy group. The unadjusted HR was 0.69 (95% CI, 0.36-1.32;

conclusionPostoperative platinum-based multiagent chemotherapy was associated with improved disease-free survival. These findings provide crucial information for shared decision-making regarding whether to undergo adjuvant chemotherapy.
