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

backgroundFormation of seroma/hematoma is one of the most common postoperative complications following laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair. This study aimed to identify risk factors associated with seroma/hematoma and construct a prediction model.

methodsElderly subjects undergoing laparoscopic Transabdominal preperitoneal Patch Plasty (TAPP) were included in this study. The observation endpoint was set as the occurrence of seroma/hematoma within 3 months after TAPP surgery. Independent risk factors were identified through preliminary univariate screening and binary logistic regression analysis. These risk factors were then used to construct a nomogram predictive model using R software.

resultsA total of 330 patients were included in the analysis, of which 51 developed seroma/hematoma, resulting in an incidence rate of 15.5%. Obesity (OR: 3.54, 95%CI: 1.45-8.66, P = 0.006), antithrombotic drug use (OR: 2.73, 95%CI: 1.06-7.03, P = 0.037), C-reactive protein (CRP) ≥ 8 (OR: 2.72, 95%CI: 1.04-7.10, P = 0.041, albumin/fibrinogen ratio (AFR) < 7.85 (OR: 2.99, 95%CI: 1.28-7.00, P = 0.012), and lymphocyte/monocyte ratio (LMR) < 4.05 (OR: 12.62, 95%CI: 5.69-28.01, P < 0.001) were five independent risk factors for seroma/hematoma. The nomogram model has well predictive value for seroma/hematoma, with an AUC of 0.879.

conclusionsThe nomogram model based on obesity, antithrombotic drug, CRP, AFR, and LMR has a proved good predictive value and it has potential in clinical practice.
