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

purposeEarly prediction of the prognosis of viral-related cirrhosis patients after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) is beneficial for clinical decision-making. The aim of this study is to explore a comprehensive prognostic assessment model for evaluating the survival outcomes of patients post-TIPS. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 155 patients treated with TIPS were included in the study. The data were collected from electronic records. The nutritional status of the patient is evaluated using imaging examinations measuring by the axial CT images from the L3 vertebral level. The primary endpoint was set as death within 1 year after TIPS. Multivariate Cox regression was performed to determine the factors associated with mortality.

resultsThe Cox regression analysis revealed that the lower PMFI was associated with a lower risk of all-cause mortality after TIPS (hazard ratio [HR] 1.159, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.063-1.263,

conclusionsIn viral-related cirrhosis patients with portal hypertension, increased muscle fat content might be a potential prognostic marker and associated with postoperative death after TIPS.
