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

backgroundRecent studies have shown that pretreatment inflammatory responses can predict prognosis. However, no reports have analyzed the combined effect of the inflammatory response with pre-treatment and post-neo adjuvant chemotherapy (NACT). This retrospective study aims to identify factors predicting prognosis and create a novel predictive scoring system.

methodsThe study was conducted at our institution between June 2006 and March 2020. Demographic and clinicopathological data were collected from patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy after sample collection by laparoscopic or laparotomy surgery, followed by interval debulking surgery. We created a scoring system, called the Predictive Prognosis Score around NACT (PPSN), using factors extracted from a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to assess the efficacy of PPSN in predicting progression-free survival and overall survival. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests were used to compare the PFS or OS rate.

resultsOur study included 72 patients, with a cut-off value of four for the scoring system. Our analysis showed that high PPSN (≥4) significantly predicts poor prognosis. Moreover, CD3

conclusionOur study shows that PPSN could be a useful prognostic tool for advanced EOC patients who undergo NACT followed by IDS.
