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

Background: The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) represents the immunoinflammatory score and can be considered as a prognostic marker; however, its relevance to the prognosis in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) remains unclear. Objectives: The present meta-analysis was conducted to comprehensively evaluate the relationship between the SII and prognosis in patients with DLBCL. Design: This meta-analysis was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses statement. Data sources and methods: The PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were comprehensively searched from inception to 16 March 2023. We calculated combined hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to estimate the prognostic significance of the SII for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in DLBCL. In addition, this study determined odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% CIs to evaluate the correlation of SII with the clinicopathological features of DLBCL. Results: Five articles including 592 cases were enrolled in the current meta-analysis. According to our combined findings, the higher SII significantly predicted worse OS (HR = 3.87, 95% CI: 2.48-6.04, Conclusion: According to this meta-analysis, the higher SII dramatically predicted inferior OS and PFS of DLBCL. Furthermore, an increased SII significantly correlated with some clinicopathological features representing the disease progression of DLBCL. Trial registration: The protocol was registered in INPLASY under the number INPLASY202380106.
