Prognostic value of the preoperative fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients undergoing R0 resection.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 22 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundInflammation plays an important role in tumor progression, and growing evidence has confirmed that the fibrinogen-to-albumin ratio (FAR) is an important prognostic factor for overall survival in malignant tumors.
aimTo investigate the prognostic significance of FAR in patients undergoing radical R0 resection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the data of 282 patients with PDAC who underwent radical R0 resection at The Cancer Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from January 2010 to December 2019. The surv_cutpoint function of the R package survminer
resultsThe optimal cut-off value of FAR was 0.08 by the surv_cutpoint function. Higher preoperative FAR was significantly correlated with clinical symptoms (
conclusionThe increase in preoperative FAR was significantly related to poor prognosis in patients undergoing radical R0 resection for PDAC. Preoperative FAR can be used clinically to predict the prognosis of PDAC patients undergoing radical R0 resection.
