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

The aim of the present research was to investigate the association between the BRAF mutation and papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), and further explore the relationship between the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) and BRAF mutation in patients with PTC. The clinicopathological data were extracted from the patients' medical records from June 2012 to June 2014 in our hospital. We enrolled 95 patients with PTC that have received the total or near-total thyroidectomy and pretracheal and paratracheal lymph node dissection. The blood samples were obtained before surgery. According to the BRAF mutation analysis, the patients were divided into two groups: BRAF mutation positive group and BRAF mutation negative group. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) for the presence of BRAF mutation was used to evaluate the optimal cutoff value of SIRI. The ratio closest to the point with maximum sensitivity and specificity was defined as the optimal cutoff value. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression model were used to confirm the independent factors and compare observed and predicted outcomes. The BRAF mutation rates were 62.1% (59/95). The results indicated that BRAF mutation was significantly correlated with pathological TNM stage, monocyte, SIRI and Galectin-3. The pathological TNM stage, monocyte, SIRI and Galectin-3 were the significant risk factors associated with the presence of BRAF mutation. Moreover, we found that patients with low SIRI had higher BRAF mutation percentage than those with high SIRI, and patients with low monocyte had higher percentage than those with high monocyte. BRAF mutation is associated with the pathological TNM stage, monocyte, SIRI and Galectin-3, and SIRI was the significant risk factor with the BRAF mutation and patients with low SIRI have higher BRAF mutation.
