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

BACKGROUNDS/

aimsThe aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic significance of neutrophyil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), CRP and CA19-9 in patients were diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) to better verify pre-operative risk stratification and management.

methodsThis retrospective study included data from 133 consecutive patients with PDAC, who were treated between 2013 and 2015. PDAC diagnosis was made by cytology or assumed by radiological assessment or surgical resection samples. All clinico-pathological data were retrieved from medical records at our institution. The laboratory data were obtained before any treatment modality. Dates of death were obtained from the central registry.

resultsThere was a statistically significant relation between radiological staging and CA19-9 and survival (

conclusionsPreoperative CRP, CA19-9 and NLR are simple, repeatable, inexpensive and well available marker, can give information on lymph node and solid organ metastasis and survival, give clues to prognosis and be useful in clinical staging of patients with PDAC.
