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

We aimed to examine the association between baseline platelet count (PLT) and the prognosis of adult secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (sHLH). Data from 292 patients with pretreatment platelet counts were retrospectively analysed from January 2016 to December 2020. We categorized platelet count into quartiles. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic splines (RCS) were used to evaluate the relationship between platelet count and mortality. During a median follow-up of 53 (interquartile ranges, 17-223) days, a total of 208 deaths occurred. After adjusting for multiple variables, a non-linear and inverse relationship was observed between platelet count and mortality in sHLH patient (P for nonlinearity=0.002). For non- lymphoma-associated haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (non-LHLH), a similar curve was also observed (P for nonlinearity =0.028). Decreased PLT (PLT Q4) was associated with an increased risk of mortality (adjusted hazard ratio: 1.97; 95% confidence interval: 1.28-3.04; P
