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

backgroundThe predictive value of various systemic inflammatory parameters has been reported. However, it is still unclear which inflammatory parameters are the best predictors of prognosis in advanced gastric cancer and what are their mechanisms of action. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between preoperative systemic inflammatory parameters and overall survival (OS) in patients with advanced gastric cancer.

methodsThis retrospective study included 489 patients with stage II/III advanced gastric cancer treated at the National Cancer Center, Republic of Korea, between January 2012 and December 2015. We divided the patients into survivors and non-survivors and compared their clinicopathological characteristics. Univariate and multivariate analyses using the Cox proportional hazards model were performed to evaluate the prognostic value of inflammatory parameters.

resultsThe absolute lymphocyte count was significantly higher in survivors (2.07 ± 0.62 × 10

conclusionsNLR and PLR were independent prognostic factors for OS in patients with advanced gastric cancer. Regarding single inflammatory parameters, an elevated lymphocyte count was the only factor associated with a favorable prognosis. These results suggest that the enhanced immune function of patients affects their prognosis more than the increased systemic inflammatory response.
