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

Aim: Anemia, inflammatory status, and malnutrition are all important factors in the prognosis of cardiovascular disease (CVD), and their interactions are also noteworthy. A recent scoring system, the hemoglobin albumin lymphocyte and platelet (HALP) score, combining multi-dimensional metrics, has been used in the prognoses of many diseases except coronary heart disease (CHD). Herein, this study aims to explore the association between HALP score and all-cause mortality in patients with CHD. Methods: Demographic and clinical data of adult patients with CHD were extracted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) database from 2003 to 2018 in this retrospective cohort study. Weighted univariate and multivariate COX proportional hazard models were used for covariates screening and exploration of the association between HALP score and all-cause mortality. The evaluation indexes were hazard ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Kaplan-Meier (KM) curve and the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve were used to assess the predictive performance of HALP on CHD prognosis. In addition, subgroup analyses of age and congestive heart failure (CHF) were also performed. Results: Among the eligible patients, 657 died of all-cause mortality. After adjusting for the covariates including age, education level, PIR, marital status, smoking, physical activity, total energy intake, CHF, stroke, hypertension, DM, CKD, cancer or malignancy, monocyte, drug for CVD, treatment for anemia, anticoagulants drug, and adrenal cortical steroids, we found that HALP score was negatively associated with the risk of all-cause mortality [HR = 0.83, 95% CI: (0.74-0.93)]. Compared with patients with high HALP scores, those who had lower HALP scores seemed to have a higher risk of all-cause mortality (all Conclusions: HALP score has a potential predictive value on CHD prognosis; however, the causal association between HALP score and mortality in patients with CHD needs further exploration.
