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

purposeThe aim of this study was to explore the correlation and clinical significance of preoperative fibrinogen and neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (F-NLR) scoring system with 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) of patients with atypical meningioma. MATERIALS AND

methodsClinical, pathological, radiological, and laboratory variables were collected to analyze their correlation with 3-year PFS in the training set with 163 patients. Patients were classified by different F-NLR scores (0, 1, or 2). External validation for the predictive value of F-NLR scoring system was performed in the validation set with 105 patients.

resultsOverall, 37.3% (100 of 268) of the enrolled patients were male. The scoring system showed good performance in predicting 3-year PFS (AUC = 0.872, 95%CI = 0.811-0.919, sensitivity = 66.1%, specificity = 93.3%, and

conclusionOur study confirmed the correlation and clinical significance of preoperative F-NLR scoring system with 3-year PFS of patients with atypical meningioma. A prospective and large-scale study is required to validate our findings.
