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

objectiveNutritional status has been reported to be associated with the prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. The study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of Triglycerides-total Cholesterol-Body weight-Index (TCBI) for short-term mortality in acute type A aortic dissection (ATAD) patients undergoing surgery. METHODS AND

resultsTotally, the data of 290 ATAD patients undergone surgery were, retrospectively, analyzed. After logistic regression analysis, TCBI was identified as an independent predictor of short-term mortality in ATAD surgery. The development of receive operating characteristic (ROC) curve demonstrated that TCBI (AUC = 0.745, P < 0.001) could provide well prognostic value for short-term mortality. Accordingly, the optimal cut-off value was identified as 883.5 and patients were divided into high TCBI (> 883.5) and low TCBI (≤ 883.5) groups. Furthermore, Kaplan-Meier analysis illustrated that short-term mortality increased significantly in the low TCBI group than in the high TCBI group (P < 0.0001). In addition, the incidence of postoperative renal failure was also elevated in the low TCBI group (P = 0.0011).

conclusionMalnutrition by preoperative TCBI presented strong prognostic value for patients following ATAD surgery. And TCBI could be applied for risk stratification and therapeutic strategy-making in ATAD.
