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 combined index of hemoglobin, albumin, lymphocyte, and platelet (HALP) can reflect systemic inflammation and nutritional status simultaneously, with some evidence revealing its prognostic value for some tumors. However, the effect of HALP on recurrence-free survival (RFS) in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) has not been reported.

aimTo investigate the prognostic value of HALP in GIST patients.

methodsData from 591 untreated patients who underwent R0 resection for primary and localized GISTs at West China Hospital between December 2008 and December 2016 were included. Clinicopathological data, preoperative albumin, blood routine information, postoperative treatment, and recurrence status were recorded. To eliminate baseline inequivalence, the propensity scores matching (PSM) method was introduced. Ultimately, the relationship between RFS and preoperative HALP was investigated.

resultsThe optimal cutoff value for HALP was determined to be 31.5 by X-tile analysis. HALP was significantly associated with tumor site, tumor size, mitosis, Ki67, National Institutes of Health (NIH) risk category, and adjuvant therapy (all

conclusionHALP was significantly correlated with postoperative pathology and postoperative treatment. Furthermore, HALP showed a strong ability to predict RFS in GIST patients who underwent radical resection.
