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

backgroundRecent studies revealed that various inflammatory and nutritional indexes were associated with prognosis in esophageal cancer (EC). However, these studies only evaluated one or two indexes, and the prognostic value of these indexes individually or in combination is unclear. This study aimed to construct an integrative score based on various inflammatory and nutritional indexes for prognosis in resectable

methodsA total of 421 consecutive patients were randomly divided into either a training or validation cohort at a ratio of 7:3 for retrospective analysis. Using logic regression analyses, independent risk factors from peripheral blood indexes were screened to construct an integrative score. The associations regarding the integrative score, clinical characteristics, cancer-specific survival (CSS), and overall survival (OS) were analyzed.

resultsOut of 20 indexes, hemoglobin (HB), C-reactive protein to albumin ratio (CAR), and platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were independent risk factors based on logical regression analyses. Then, an integrative score with the optimal cut-off value of .67 was established according to the Combination Of HB, CAR, and PLR (COHCP). The area under the curve (AUC) indicated higher predictive ability of COHCP on prognosis than other indicators. Multivariate analyses revealed that COHCP serves as an independent prognostic score. Patients with COHCP low group (≤.67) had better 5-year CSS (57.3% vs 13.5%,

conclusionThe COHCP was a novel, simple, and useful predictor in resectable ESCC. The COHCP-based nomogram may accurately and effectively predict survival.
