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

objectiveTo determine whether the modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS) and high-sensitivity mGPS (HS-mGPS) could predict outcomes among patients with hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HSCC). STUDY

designRetrospective cohort study.

settingAffiliated university hospital.

methodsWe reviewed the records of 115 patients with histologically confirmed HSCC between March 2007 and December 2019. Univariate and multivariable Cox proportional hazard analyses were performed for overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS).

resultsThe 5-year OS rates were 84.0% for the mGPS0 group, 47.8% for the mGPS1 group, and 17.9% for the mGPS2 group (

conclusionOur study suggests that the HS-mGPS is useful as prognostic factor in HSCC.
