A Nomogram Based on Circulating CD4
Article in Journal of inflammation research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
purposeDistant metastasis is the main pattern of treatment failure in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in the era of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). We aimed to establish and validate a prognostic nomogram to identify patients with a high risk of distant metastasis. PATIENTS AND
methodsA total of 503 patients with nonmetastatic NPC were included in this retrospective study. We established a prognostic nomogram for distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) based on the Cox proportional hazards model. The predictive discriminative ability and accuracy of the nomogram were assessed with the concordance index (C-index), receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and calibration curve. The nomogram's clinical utility was also evaluated using decision curve analysis (DCA) and Kaplan-Meier method. The predictive ability of the nomogram was validated in an independent cohort.
resultsThe multivariate analysis showed that circulating CD4
conclusionAs a supplement to TNM staging, our nomogram could provide a more effective and accurate prognostic prediction of distant metastasis in NPC patients. It has the potential to guide the individualized treatment of patients to improve their survival.
