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

backgroundUnderstanding the relationship between age and prognosis of female lymph node-metastatic gastric cancer (FLMGC) remains limited. This study aimed to elucidate the prognostic impact of age on FLMGC.

methodsThis population-based retrospective analysis used data from the SEER database. After applying the exclusion criteria, a final cohort of 1,172 FLMGC cases was included. The patients were categorized by age into five groups: ≤ 50 years (n = 144), 51-60 years (n = 192), 61-70 years (n = 291), 71-80 years (n = 325), and ≥ 81 years (n = 220). Cancer-specific survival (CSS) was selected as the outcome in this study.

resultsSignificant factors for CSS identified in multivariate analysis included age, tumor differentiation, AJCC T and N stages, systemic therapy, number of positive lymph nodes, and total number of retrieved lymph nodes. Age had a nonlinear effect on CSS (P for nonlinearity < 0.001), with the lowest risk occurring in the 55-60 year age group.

conclusionsThis SEER-based study revealed a nonlinear relationship between age and FLMGC prognosis, with the lowest risk occurring in the 55-60-year age group.
