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

backgroundUterine malignancies frequently metastasize to the lungs. Pulmonary metastasectomy has demonstrated survival benefits in some malignancies; however, its efficacy for uterine malignancies remains unclear.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 38 patients who underwent pulmonary metastasectomy for uterine malignancies at the Kanagawa Cancer Center between 2010 and 2020. The primary endpoint was recurrence-free survival (RFS) after pulmonary resection.

resultsThe median patient age was 63 years. The primary sites were the cervical uteri (

conclusionsPulmonary metastasectomy may confer prognostic benefits in patients with uterine malignancies. Careful consideration is warranted for patients with advanced-stage primary tumors, early recurrence after primary treatment, synchronous extrapulmonary recurrence, and uterine sarcoma.
