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 mortality rate for elderly patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) admitted to intensive care units (ICU) is high. The combination assessment of Systemic Immune-inflammation Index (SII) and Prognostic Nutritional Index (PNI) can provide a more comprehensive evaluation of the patient's immune response, systemic inflammatory burden, and nutritional metabolic status. Methods: From the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database (MIMIC-IV, version 3.1), we selected 12457 patients with CAP admitted to the ICU. After exclusions, 634 patients were included and randomly split into training ( Results: Receiver operating characteristic analysis determined the optimal cutoff values for SII (2030.28; AUC = 0.573, 95% CI 0.517-0.628, Conclusion: The SII-PNI may serve as a adjunct for evaluating the 30-day mortality rate among elderly ICU patients admitted with CAP.
