Pretreatment Immune Status, Predicts Response to Definite Chemo Radiotherapy in Advanced Stages of Cervical Cancer Patients.
Article in Journal of obstetrics and gynaecology of India, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Objective: To evaluate the prognostic role of pretreatment CD4 + , CD8 + T lymphocytes in predicting response to definite chemo radiotherapy in advanced cervical cancer. Design: A hospital-based prospective one-year follow-up study. Method: This observational study was conducted on 74 patients with advanced cervical cancer. Pretreatment CD4 + and CD8 + levels in cervical cancer tissue and peripheral blood was noted and quantitatively assessed in patients with complete remission or persistent disease after one year of follow-up. Results: There was a statistically significant association of tumour volume with the remission or persistence of disease. In peripheral blood, mean CD4 + score and CD4 + /CD8 + ratio were significantly higher while mean CD8 + score is significantly lower in patients with remission. Similar results were seen in tumour tissue as well. On Receiver Operating Curve analysis, the cut-off value of CD4 + , CD8 + and CD4 + /CD8 + ratio in predicting remission or persistent disease in peripheral blood was 20.09, 18.51 and 0.41 while in tumor tissue was 19.71, 20.99 and 0.20, respectively. Conclusion: The patients with tumor volume < 100 cm 2 have much higher chances of remission. The patients with higher CD4 + and CD4 + / CD8 + ratio, both in peripheral blood as well as tumor tissue, have higher chances of remission. The cut-off value of CD4 + , CD8 + and CD4 + /CD8 + ratio in predicting remission or persistent disease in peripheral blood was 20.09, 18.51 and 0.41 while in tumor tissue was 19.71, 20.99 and 0.20, respectively.
