Prediction model based on blood urea nitrogen and the leukocyte count for intestinal necrosis in patients with portal vein system thrombosis: a retrospective study.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundPortal vein system thrombosis (PVST) is a serious and potentially fatal disease. No definite parameter can predict intestinal necrosis in patients with PVST to justify early surgical intervention. The current study aimed to explore a simple and accurate model to predict the occurrence of intestinal necrosis in patients with PVST.
methodsRecords of patients admitted to our emergency department with PVST from January 2010 to October 2018 were reviewed. Clinical parameters, including patient history, physical examination, and the results of laboratory investigations, were analyzed.
resultsSixty-nine patients (27 females) were included. All patients were admitted to our emergency department because of abdominal pain. Fourteen patients required exploratory laparotomy, and intestinal necrosis was confirmed. Seven patients received thrombolytic therapy, and the other 48 patients had completed anticoagulation successfully. According to multivariate logistic regression, high blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (OR: 1.413, P=0.048) and the leukocyte count (OR: 1.180, P=0.005) were associated with intestinal necrosis, and a prediction model for intestinal necrosis (PMIN) based on the BUN and leukocyte count was established.
conclusionsThe PMIN score could effectively predict intestinal necrosis in patients with PVST.
