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

Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and systemic inflammatory index (SII) are prognostic factors in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Their predictive value for platinum-sensitivity and their role in recurrent EOC are unknown. A total of 375 EOC patients were retrospectively analyzed. The correlation between baseline NLR and SII, and platinum-free interval (PFI) according to first line bevacizumab treatment were analyzed using logistic regression analyses adjusted for baseline patient characteristics. Subsequently NLR and SII calculated before second line treatment initiation were evaluated to identify a potential correlation with progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in platinum-sensitive and in platinum-resistant population. In multivariate analysis, NLR ≥ 3 is an independent predictive factor for PFI at 6 months in the chemotherapy group (OR = 2.77, 95% CI 1.38-5.56, p = 0.004), not in bevacizumab treated patients. After having adjusted for ECOG performance status, histology, ascites, bevacizumab treatment at second line and BRCA status, NLR ≥ 3 and SII ≥ 730 are significantly associated with worse OS in platinum-sensitive (HR = 2.69, 95% CI 1.60-4.53, p = 0.002; HR = 2.11, 95% CI 1.29-3.43, p = 0.003, respectively), not in platinum-resistant EOC patients. Low NLR is an independent predictive factor for platinum-sensitivity in patients treated without bevacizumab. NLR and SII are prognostic factors in recurrent platinum-sensitive EOC patients.
