The Prognostic Value of the Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index in Glioblastoma Patients and the Establishment of a Nomogram.
Article in Current medical science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveThe systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) has recently attracted significant interest as a new biomarker for predicting the prognosis of patients with glioblastoma (GBM). However, the predictive significance of it is still a subject of debate. This study intended to assess the clinical effectiveness of the SII in GBM and establish a nomogram.
methodsReceiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were utilized to determine the optimal cut-off values of the SII. Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival curves were used to analyze the median overall survival (OS). Cox regression analysis was carried out to evaluate the associations between OS and different clinical factors. Based on the SII and clinical characteristics, a nomogram was constructed, and its value in clinical application was evaluated by means of decision curve analysis.
resultsThe optimal SII cut-off value was 610.13. KM analysis revealed that GBM patients with higher SII values had shorter OS (15.0 vs. 34.0 months, P = 0.044). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that a high SII was an independent predictor of poor outcome in GBM (HR = 1.79, P = 0.029). The nomogram incorporating the preoperative SII showed good predictive accuracy for GBM patient prognosis (C-index = 0.691).
conclusionsThe SII is an independent predictive indicator for GBM. Patients with elevated SII levels tend to have a poorer prognosis. A nomogram combining the SII with clinical and molecular pathological features can assist clinicians in assessing the risk of death in GBM patients, providing a basis for individualized treatment decisions.
