Inflammatory Ratios as Predictors for Tumor Invasiveness, Metastasis, Resectability and Early Postoperative Evolution in Gastric Cancer.
Article in Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Our study aimed to evaluate the baseline neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) in relation to invasion, metastasis, and resectability for patients with gastric cancer, respectively, as predictors of death during hospitalization or surgical complications. A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 657 gastric cancer subjects. Inflammatory biomarkers were computed. The associations with tumor stage, metastasis, optimal procedure, in-hospital mortality, and surgical complications were evaluated. Subjects who underwent curative-intent surgery presented lower median NLRs (2.9 vs. 3.79), PLRs (166.15 vs. 196.76), and SIIs (783.61 vs. 1122.25), and higher LMRs (3.34 vs. 2.9) than those who underwent palliative surgery. Significantly higher NLRs (3.3 vs. 2.64), PLRs (179.68 vs. 141.83), and SIIs (920.01 vs. 612.93) were observed for those with T3- and T4-stage cancer, in comparison with those with T1- and T2-stage cancer. Values were significantly higher in the case of metastasis for the NLR (3.96 vs. 2.93), PLR (205.22 vs. 167.17), and SII (1179 vs. 788.37) and significantly lower for the LMR (2.74 vs. 3.35). After the intervention, the NLR, PLR, and SII values were higher (
