Preoperative plasma D-Dimer level is correlated with peritoneal cancer index of patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei.

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
purposeAccurate assessment of preoperative tumor burden contribute to formulate a scientific surgical plan for patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). Present study aimed to assess whether the preoperative plasma D-Dimer level could reflect tumor burden for PMP patients.
methodsA total of 253 PMP patients were included between June 1, 2013 and March 1, 2022. According to the peritoneal cancer index (PCI), all participants were divided into extensive (PCI ≥ 28) and none-extensive (PCI < 28) subgroups. The D-Dimer and tumor markers were compared between the two subgroups. The correlation between the abovementioned biomarkers and PCI will be calculated, and further compared with each other. Two-sided P value less than 0.05 is considered statistically significant.
resultsThe level of D-Dimer (ng/ml) between extensive and none-extensive subgroup were 600 (328, 1268) vs. 339 (128, 598), Z = -5.425, p < 0.001. The Spearman correlation between D-Dimer, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen 125 (CA 125), CA 19 - 9 and PCI were 0.487, 0.509, 0.469, and 0.499, respectively (all p < 0.001). The correlation coefficients were compared with each other according to Meng, Rosenthal and Rubin's method, however, there was no significant difference.
conclusionPreoperative plasma D-Dimer could moderately reflect tumor burden for PMP. In the future, a multivariate prediction model will be developed to help surgeons to formulate a more precise surgical plan for the PMP patients.
