Prognostic Value of Inflammation and Nutrition-Based Scores in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer.
Article in Medical principles and practice : international journal of the Kuwait University, Health Science Centre, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveIn studies conducted on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, many factors such as age, stage, weight loss, lymph node, and pleural involvement have been shown to affect survival. On the other hand, systemic inflammation plays a critical role in proliferation, migration, invasion, and metastasis. Inflammation and nutrition-based prognostic scores are reported to be associated with survival in patients with NSCLC. The aim of our study is to show the effects of these scores on survival and disease progression in NSCLC patients. SUBJECTS AND
methodsNeutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS), and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) values in 102 patients with stages 1, 2, and 3A NSCLC were analyzed retrospectively.
resultsNLR (p < 0.001), PLR (p = 0.001), PNI (p < 0.001), and mGPS (p = 0.001) variables showed a statistically significant difference according to mortality groups. NLR and PLR values were higher in exitus patients. However, PNI values were higher in surviving patients. NLR (p < 0.001), PLR (p = 0.004), PNI (p = 0.001), and mGPS (p = 0.015) variables showed a statistically significant difference in terms of locoregional recurrence. PNI (p = 0.001) and mGPS (p = 0.001) in terms of distant metastasis development during follow-up and treatment showed a statistically significant difference.
conclusionNLR, PLR, PNI, and mGPS are easily accessible noninvasive parameters and provide predictive information about survival and disease course. We showed the effect of these parameters on the prognosis.
