Association between the systemic immune-inflammation index and kidney stone: A cross-sectional study of NHANES 2007-2018.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 79 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
Background: The incidence rate of kidney stones increased over the past decades globally, which brought medical expenditure and social burden. The systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) was initially identified as a prognosis of multiple diseases. We performed an updated analysis on the impact of SII on kidney stones. Methods: This compensatory cross-sectional study enrolled participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007-2018. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to investigate the association between SII and kidney stones. Results: Of the 22220 participants, the mean (SD) age was 49.45 ± 17.36 years old, with a 9.87% incidence rate of kidney stones. A fully adjusted model showed that SII higher than 330 x 10 Conclusions: Our findings suggested SII was positively associated with a high risk of kidney stones in US adults aged less than 50. The outcome compensated for previous studies that still needed more large-scale prospective cohorts for validation.
