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

Objective: This research was performed to determine the risk factors for gallbladder gangrene in acute acalculous cholecystitis patients and to assess the predictive ability of inflammatory markers. Methods: The study included 226 acute acalculous cholecystitis patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy within 72 h of onset. The receiver operating characteristic curves were employed to determine the optimal cut-off, specificity, and sensitivity of inflammatory markers in predicting gangrenous cholecystitis. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to ascertain the independent risk factors associated with gallbladder gangrene. Results: The incidence rate of gallbladder gangrene in acute acalculous cholecystitis was 45.1% (102/226). Compared with other inflammatory markers, the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) demonstrated superior predictive validity (vs. CRP, Conclusion: This study found that platelet, PCT, SII, D-dimer, CA19-9, gallbladder enlargement, and gallbladder effusion were independent risk factors for gallbladder gangrene in acute acalculous cholecystitis. SII could serve as a novel, straightforward, and potent predictive indicator for gallbladder gangrene in acute acalculous cholecystitis.
