Role of glucose/potassium ratio and shock index in predicting mortality in patients with isolated thoracoabdominal blunt trauma.
Observational study in Ulusal travma ve acil cerrahi dergisi = Turkish journal of trauma & emergency surgery : TJTES, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundThe aim of this study, investigate the prognostic value of shock index (SI), which has been accepted for a long time, and glucose-potassium ratio (GPR), which has limited data in patients with trauma and those with isolated blunt thoracoabdominal trauma.
methodsThis retrospective observational study was conducted at the tertiary reference hospital. Consecutive patients aged 18 years and older treated for blunt thoracoabdominal trauma in the emergency department between August 2020 and February 2022 were included in the study. The ability of GPRs obtained from arterial blood gases and SI levels on admission to predict mortality and indication for surgery was evaluated by calculating areas under receiver operating characteristic curves Area under the curve (AUCs).
resultsA total of 102 patients, of which 91 in the survivor group and 11 in the non-survivor group, were analyzed. The AUCs for estimating mortality with GPR and SI were 0.854 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.742-0.967) and 0.809 (95%, 0.666-0.952), respectively. The AUCs of GPR and SI to estimate the indication for surgery were 0.761 (95% CI, 0.657-0.864) and 0.582 (95% CI, 0.416-0.747), respectively.
conclusionThis study reported the efficacy of SI and GPR in predicting surgical indication and mortality in patients with isolated blunt thoracoabdominal trauma and the superior predictive role of GPR over SI.
