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

Revascularization surgery for moyamoya disease poses risks of complications, requiring appropriate management. Although precise prediction is difficult, the systemic immune-inflammation index is a calculable marker that reflects systemic inflammatory conditions. We aimed to investigate the association between postoperative complications and the systemic immune-inflammation index. We included 91 hemispheres from 71 patients who underwent combined revascularization surgery for moyamoya disease. Symptomatic cerebral hyperperfusion, radiological ischemic and hemorrhagic complications, and temporal muscle swelling that caused brain shift were assessed. The systemic immune-inflammation index ratio was calculated from blood test results from the preoperative day and the day after surgery. The association between the systemic immune-inflammation index ratio and postoperative complications was assessed using univariate and multivariate analyses. A receiver operating characteristic analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnostic value of the systemic immune-inflammation index ratio for postoperative complications. The frequencies of postoperative symptomatic cerebral hyperperfusion, ischemic and hemorrhagic complications, and temporal muscle swelling were detected in 24 (26%), 15 (16%), 11 (12%), and 5 (5%) hemispheres, respectively. The systemic immune-inflammation index ratio was higher in the group with postoperative complications than in the group without (median 4.6 vs. 2.7). Multivariate analysis demonstrated the systemic immune-inflammation index ratio as an independent factor associated with symptomatic cerebral hyperperfusion (odds ratio 2.4, 95% confidence interval 1.5-4.0). The receiver operating characteristic analysis demonstrated that the optimal threshold of the systemic immune-inflammation index ratio was 4.3, with a specificity of 0.96 and sensitivity of 0.63. The systemic immune-inflammation index ratio is an indicator of postoperative complications, including symptomatic cerebral hyperperfusion in moyamoya disease, and can be used for effective postoperative management.
