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

Background: The systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) has been investigated for its prognostic relevance in patients with glioma; however, findings remain inconsistent. Therefore, this meta-analysis aimed to clarify the prognostic value of SIRI in glioma. Methods: PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, and CNKI were systematically searched through December 28, 2024. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to assess the association between SIRI and glioma prognosis. Results: A total of 10 studies including 1,942 participants were analyzed. Elevated SIRI was significantly associated with poorer overall survival (OS) (HR=1.67, 95% CI=1.46-1.91, p<0.001) and shorter progression-free survival (PFS) (HR=1.80, 95% CI=1.29-2.52, p=0.001). Subgroup analyses indicated that the prognostic value of SIRI for OS and PFS was consistent regardless of sample size, pathological subtype, cutoff value, or type of survival analysis (p<0.05). Sensitivity and publication bias analyses confirmed the robustness of the results. Conclusion: This meta-analysis demonstrates that high SIRI is a significant predictor of OS and PFS in patients with glioma. SIRI may serve as a promising prognostic biomarker in glioma-related clinical practice.
