Use of the Advanced Lung Cancer Inflammation Index as a Prognostic Indicator for Patients With Cholangiocarcinoma.

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
backgroundThis study aimed to assess the clinical utility of the advanced lung cancer inflammation index (ALI) as a prognostic indicator for patients with cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) and construct a prognostic nomogram based on ALI.
methodsA total of 97 CCA patients who received radical resection were included. The optimal cut-off point for ALI was identified by X-tile analysis. COX regression analysis were used to identify risk factors of overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). A predictive nomogram for DFS was constructed.
resultsThe optimal cut-off value for preoperative ALI was 31.8. 35 (36.1%) patients were categorized into the low-ALI group and 62 (63.9%) patients into the high-ALI group. Low ALI was independently associated with hypoproteinemia and lower body mass index (BMI) (all
conclusionsALI may be useful for prognosis assessment for patients with CCA.
