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

objectivesTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a highly aggressive subtype of breast cancer with a relatively poor prognosis. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is the main treatment method. Due to the heterogeneity of the tumor, the chemotherapy response of TNBC patients is significantly different. Inflammation is closely related to the occurrence and development of cancer. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) is an indicator that can comprehensively reflect the state of systemic inflammation. This study aims to explore the association between SII and the NAC efficacy as well as the prognosis in TNBC.

methodsThe data of TNBC patients who underwent NAC and systemic treatment in Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2015 to June 2019 were collected. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 231 TNBC patients were finally included. The pre-NAC SII was calculated according to the blood routine results of the patients at 1 week before chemotherapy, and the patients were divided into a pre-NAC low SII group (SII<412, 115 cases) and a pre-NAC high SII group (SII≥412, 116 cases). The SII after chemotherapy was calculated according to the blood routine results of the patients at 2 to 3 months after the end of chemotherapy, and the patients were divided into a low SII group after chemotherapy (SII<474, 115 cases) and a high SII group after chemotherapy (SII≥474, 116 cases). Pearson's chi-square test was used to analyze the relationship between SII and other clinical characteristics of TNBC patients, and the relationship between the NAC efficacy and clinical characteristics of TNBC patients. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to find independent factors that affect the efficacy of NAC in TNBC patients. Kaplan-Meier curve analysis was used to analyze factors affecting the prognosis of TNBC patients. Cox regression model was used to find independent factors affecting the prognosis of TNBC patients.

resultsBefore NAC, the differences in SII between groups with different ages and tumor sizes were significant (

conclusionsSII has important clinical significance in predicting the efficacy and prognosis of NAC in TNBC patients, and it has the potential to be a biomarker.
