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

backgroundNutritional status is a predictor of the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. The association between the Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI), which is an immunonutritional parameter, and cardiovascular diseases has been extensively studied in the literature.

objectivesThe aim of this study was to investigate whether PNI is associated with coronary collateral development.

methodsThis retrospective study included 172 patients with chronic total occlusion. The patients were diagnosed with stable coronary artery disease, and all patients underwent coronary angiography. PNI was calculated using serum albumin level and lymphocyte count. Collateral circulation was classified according to Rentrop grade.

resultsThere was a positive correlation between PNI and Rentrop grade (r = 0.168, p = 0.026) and a negative correlation between C-reactive protein and PNI (r = -0.353, p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that uric acid and PNI were independent predictors of Rentrop grade (p = 0.008 and p = 0.037, respectively).

conclusionsThis study showed that PNI, which can easily be calculated using serum albumin level and lymphocyte count, was a predictor of coronary collateral development in terms of Rentrop grade.
