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

backgroundMultiple myeloma is one of the most common haematological malignancies worldwide and poses a serious threat to the life and health of the population. In recent years, more and more researchers have incorporated the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) into the prognostic studies of tumours and evaluated the nutritional status and predicted the long-term prognosis of patients by PNI.

methodsThe medical records of 245 patients with multiple myeloma who received autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in our hospital from February 2011 to July 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The optimal cut-off value was obtained by drawing the ROC curve, and the influencing factors of low PNI value and its impact on the prognosis of multiple myeloma patients were obtained. Besides, the influencing factors of prognosis of multiple myeloma treated by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were analyzed, and the nematic model was constructed and verified.

resultsROC curve showed that the best cut-off value of PNI in predicting the survival outcome of multiple myeloma autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients was 46.1. The 3-year survival rate of patients treated with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for multiple myeloma was 1.0% in the low PNI group and 11.6% in the high PNI group. Multivariate Cox regression model analysis showed that lactate dehydrogenase, PNI, disease status before transplantation, bone marrow invasion, and diabetes mellitus were independent factors influencing the prognosis of patients with multiple myeloma treated by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

conclusionPNI has an important predictive value for the prognosis of patients treated with autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation for multiple myeloma, and the column chart constructed based on it is beneficial to the clinical prognosis of patients treated with autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
