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

Background: Avian influenza A H7N9 progresses rapidly and has a high case fatality rate. However, few models are available to predict the survival of individual patients with H7N9 infection in real-time. This study set out to construct a dynamic model for individual prognosis prediction based on multiple longitudinal measurements taken during hospitalization. Methods: The clinical and laboratory characteristics of 96 patients with H7N9 who were admitted to hospitals in Jiangsu between January 2016 and May 2017 were retrospectively investigated. A random forest model was applied to longitudinal data to select the biomarkers associated with prognostic outcome. Finally, a multivariate joint model was used to describe the time-varying effects of the biomarkers and calculate individual survival probabilities. Results: The random forest selected a set of significant biomarkers that had the lowest classification error rates in the feature selection phase, including C-reactive protein (CRP), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), procalcitonin (PCT), base excess (BE), lymphocyte count (LYMPH), white blood cell count (WBC), and creatine phosphokinase (CPK). The multivariate joint model was used to describe the effects of these biomarkers and characterize the dynamic progression of the prognosis. Combined with the covariates, the joint model displayed a good performance in discriminating survival outcomes in patients within a fixed time window of 3 days. During hospitalization, the areas under the curve were stable at 0.75. Conclusions: Our study has established a novel model that is able to identify significant indicators associated with the prognostic outcomes of patients with H7N9, characterize the time-to-event process, and predict individual-level daily survival probabilities after admission.
