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

objectiveRisk assessment and prognosis prediction are crucial for patients with pulmonary involvement in antineutrophil cytoplasimc antibody associated vasculitis (AAV). This study was conducted to create and internally validate a prognostic model for mortality of pulmonary involvement in patients with AAV that provides individualized risk assessments.

methodsA cohort of 150 patients diagnosed with AAV at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University Hospital between January 2013 and July 2022 was included, using data obtained from the Chinese Rheumatism Data Center (CRDC). The model was developed using Cox proportional hazards regression and the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator. To validate the model, assessments were conducted for discrimination, calibration, and through decision curve analysis.

resultsThe mean survival time of lung involvement AAV patients was 57.0 ± 4.1 months. In the final predictive model for death, four clinical variables were included: age at baseline, history of tumors, baseline hemoglobin level, and the level of the percentage of forced vital capacity to the normal predicted value. One-, two-, and three-year AAV patients with pulmonary involvement mortality probability-predictive nomogram were established. Internal validation of the model was conducted, yielding Harrell's concordance index (0.884), a Brier score of 0.088, and a calibration curve indicating satisfactory performance.

conclusionWe constructed a risk model utilizing easily accessible clinical risk factors, which could accurately forecast the future mortality risk associated with pulmonary involvement in AAV patients.
