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

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the predictive ability of inflammatory and nutritional markers and further establish a novel inflammatory nutritional prognostic scoring (INPS) system. Patients and Methods: We collected clinicopathological and baseline laboratory data of 352 patients with DLBCL between April 2010 and January 2023 at the First affiliated hospital of Ningbo University. Eligible patients were randomly divided into training and validation cohorts (n = 281 and 71, respectively) in an 8:2 ratio. We used the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) Cox regression model to determine the most important factors among the eight inflammatory-nutritional variables. The impact of INPS on OS was evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier curve and the Log rank test. A prognostic nomogram was developed based on the multivariate Cox regression method. Then, we used the concordance index (C-index), calibration plot, and time-dependent receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis to evaluate the prognostic performance and predictive accuracy of the nomogram. Results: Seven inflammatory-nutritional biomarkers, including neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), body mass index (BMI), monocyte-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), prealbumin, C reactive protein, and D-dimer were selected using the LASSO Cox analysis to construct INPS, In the multivariate analysis, IPI-High-intermediate group, IPI-High group, high INPS were independently associated with OS, respectively. The prognostic nomogram for overall survival consisting of the above two indicators showed excellent discrimination. The C-index for the nomogram was 0.94 and 0.95 in the training and validation cohorts. The time-dependent ROC curves showed that the predictive accuracy of the nomogram for OS was better than that of the NCCN-IPI system. Conclusion: The INPS based on seven inflammatory-nutritional indexes was a reliable and convenient predictor of outcomes in DLBCL patients.
