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

Purpose: This study aimed to assess the predictive value of preoperative albumin-globulin ratio (AGR) for systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Methods: Patients who underwent PCNL in Guizhou Provincial People's hospital between August 2017 and July 2019 were enrolled and retrospectively reviewed. The primary clinical outcome of the current study was the development of SIRS within 48h after PCNL. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were conducted to verify the predictive value of AGR for post-PCNL SIRS. In addition, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to compare the discriminatory ability of AGR with other inflammatory biomarkers. Results: 354 patients who underwent PCNL were enrolled and 66 patients (18.64%) developed postoperative SIRS. None of the patients suffered postoperative sepsis in our study. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that female sex (odds ratio [OR]=2.939, 95% odds ratio [OR]: 1.368-6.315, p = 0.006), CRP (OR = 1.008, 95% CI: 1.003-1.012, p = 0.001), and AGR (OR = 0.048, 95% CI: 0.010-0.239, p < 0.001) were all independent predictors for SIRS after PCNL. The optimal cut-off value of AGR for predicting postoperative SIRS was 1.145. In addition, AGR had a higher area under the curve (0.844) with sensitivity of 83.3% and specificity of 88.9% than C-reactive protein (0.808). Conclusion: Preoperative AGR is a potential predictor for SIRS development after PCNL.
