Prognostic value of mean platelet volume to plateletcrit ratio in patients with osteosarcoma.
Article in Cancer management and research, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveThe objective of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of preoperative mean platelet volume to plateletcrit (MPV/PCT) ratio in patients with osteosarcoma. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe retrospective study included 188 consecutive osteosarcoma patients who experienced neoadjuvant chemotherapy and surgical resection of tumor. The relationships between MPV/PCT and clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression proportional hazard model were applied to assess the prognostic value of MPV/PCT ratio.
resultsMPV/PCT ratio was found to be significantly associated with platelet count, platelet distribution width, and PCT (all
conclusionThe high preoperative MPV/PCT ratio may serve as an independent prognostic factor for a favorable prognosis in male osteosarcoma patients. Further studies are needed to confirm the findings.
