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

Introduction: Our study aimed to quantify the predictive ability of the Systemic Immune-inflammatory Index (SII) for predicting the prognosis and multidimensional complications in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. The primary outcome was poor prognosis, and secondary outcomes included mortality, severity, hemorrhagic transformation/symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage, stroke-associated pneumonia/poststroke pneumonia, early neurological deterioration, post-stroke depression, progression or recurrence, and other adverse outcomes. Methods: We searched 15 databases from their establishment to 13 October 2024 and selected cohort or case-control analyses that analyzed the association of continuous or categorized SII as exposures with the above adverse outcomes of AIS populations. Results: The results showed that 78 studies with 40,682 participants were included in meta-analyses. Continuous SII values were significantly higher in poor prognosis groups than in controls (SMD = 248.13, 95% CI: 198.77 to 297.50; Discussion: In conclusion, our study found that continuous SII and high SII were associated with poor prognosis of AIS and various complications. Given the accessibility and low cost of SII, integrating it into prognostic scores merits further research for better clinical choices.
