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

objectivesTo evaluate whether the systemic inflammation score (SIS) could predict postoperative outcomes for patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy for early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

methodsThis retrospective study was conducted on the prospectively maintained database in our institution between January 2016 and December 2017. Preoperative SIS comprising serum albumin (sALB) and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) was graded into 0, 1 and 2, and then utilized to distinguish patients at high surgical risks. Multivariable logistic-regression analysis was conducted to determine independent risk factors for postoperative outcomes.

resultsThere were 1,025 patients with TNM-stage I-II NSCLC included, with an overall morbidity rate of 31.1% and mortality rate of 0.3%. We applied the sALB at 40 g/L and the median LMR of our series at 4.42 as dichotomized cutoffs for modified SIS scoring criteria. Both minor and major morbidity rates in patients with SIS=2 were significantly higher than those in patients with SIS=0 and with SIS=1 (

conclusionsThe SIS scoring system can be employed as a simplified, effective and routinely operated risk stratification tool in patients undergoing VATS lobectomy.
