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

Hyperfibrinogenemia and cancer-associated systemic inflammatory response are strongly associated with cancer progression and prognosis. We aimed to develop a novel prognostic score (F-SII score) on the basis of preoperative fibrinogen (F) and systemic immunoinflammatory index (SII), and evaluate its predictive value in patients with resectable gastric cancer (GC). Patients diagnosed with GC between January 2012 and December 2016 were reviewed. The F-SII score was 2 for patients with a high fibrinogen level (≥ 3.37 g/L) and a high SII (≥ 372.8), whereas that for patients with one or neither was 1 or 0, respectively. A high F-SII score was significantly associated with older patient age, a high ASA score, large tumor size, large proportion of perineural invasion, and late TNM stage. Multivariate analysis indicated that the F-SII score, histological grade, and TNM stage were independent factors for overall survival (OS). The Harrell's concordance index (C-index) of a nomogram based on the F-SII score and several clinicopathological manifestations was 0.72, which showed a better predictive ability for OS than the TNM stage alone (0.68). In conclusion, preoperative F-SII may serve as a useful predictive factor for OS and refine outcome prediction for patients with resectable GC combined with traditional clinicopathological analysis.
