The Predictive Value of the Fibrinogen-Albumin-Ratio Index on Surgical Outcomes in Patients with Advanced High-Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer.

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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesThe present study evaluates predictive implications of the pretherapeutic Fibrinogen-Albumin-Ratio Index (FARI) in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) patients undergoing primary cytoreductive surgery.
methodsThis retrospective study included 161 patients with HGSOC International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage ≥ IIb, who underwent primary cytoreductive surgery followed by platinum-based chemotherapy. Associations between the FARI and complete tumor resection status were described by receiver operating characteristics, and binary logistic regression models were fitted.
resultsHigher preoperative FARI values correlated with higher ascites volumes (r = 0.371,
conclusionsThe FARI appears to act as a surrogate for higher intra-abdominal tumor load. After clinical validation, FARI could serve as a readily available serologic biomarker to complement preoperative patient assessment, helping to identify patients who are likely to achieve complete tumor resection during primary cytoreductive surgery.
