The role of quick Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment score as simple scoring system to predict Fournier gangrene mortality and the correlation with Fournier's Gangrene Severity Index: Analysis of 69 patients.
Article in Asian journal of urology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Objective: Fournier's gangrene is a rare but life-threatening infection disease with high mortality rate. The quick Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment (qSOFA) is a new and simpler scoring system that may identify patients with suspected infection who are at greater risk for a poor outcome. The purpose of this study was to find out role of qSOFA in determining prognosis of Fournier's gangrene patients. Methods: This study is a case control with retrospective review of Fournier's gangrene patients treated at Hasan Sadikin Hospital from January 2013 to December 2017 who met inclusion criteria. Participants were divided into two groups according to qSOFA score as high qSOFA (2-3) and low qSOFA (0-1). Results: From 69 patients, the mortality rate was 24.6%. The sensitivity of qSOFA score to predict mortality was 88.2%; the specificity was 94.2%; positive predictive value was 83.3%; negative predictive value was 96.1%; positive likelihood ratio was 15.2; negative likelihood ratio was 0.12; and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of qSOFA was 94.2%. There was significant association between qSOFA scale and mortality with Conclusion: qSOFA scoring system has a high prognostic value and can be used to determine prognosis of Fournier's gangrene patients.
