Prognostic Value of Albumin-to-Alkaline Phosphatase Ratio for
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Resistance inevitably develops in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients after treatment of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs). The albumin-to-alkaline phosphatase ratio (AAPR), a novel index, has been reported to be associated with survival in various cancers. In this study, we explored the prognostic value of AAPR in Methods: The clinical and pretreatment laboratory data were retrospectively extracted from hospital medical system. The Log-rank and Kaplan-Meier analyses were adopted to detect differences in survival between groups. Univariate and multivariate Cox's proportional hazard regression models were applied to assess the prognostic value of AAPR for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Results: Totally, 598 Conclusion: Pretreatment AAPR, measured as part of routine blood biochemical test, may be a reliable prognostic indicator in
