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

purposeTo investigate the relationship between the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) recurrence and the levels of the systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII, platelet × neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio) in patients with AF and diabetes mellitus (DM) undergoing after radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA). PATIENTS AND

methodsPreoperative SII levels were determined in AF patients with DM undergoing RFCA. Restricted cubic splines were used to determine the correlation between SII and the risk of AF recurrence. Multivariate-adjusted logistic regression models were constructed to determine the relationship between SII levels and AF recurrence. The predictive value of the clinical model and combined with the SII index was estimated by the area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve, net reclassification improvement (NRI), and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI).

resultsA total of 204 patients with AF and DM who underwent RFCA in our hospital were included. Seventy-seven patients had AF recurred during a mean follow-up of 20 months. Restricted cubic spline analysis showed that when SII ≥ 444.77 × 10

conclusionSII was independently and positively associated with recurrence after the first catheter ablation in patients with DM and AF.
