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

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the association between blood inflammatory markers, including C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), and the short-term prognosis of pneumoconiosis, and to develop a multifactorial prediction model. Patients and Methods: Clinical data of 813 pneumoconiosis patients admitted to two regional tertiary hospitals from October 2016 to August 2023 were retrospectively collected and randomly divided into a training set (n=568) and an external validation set (n=245). Variables were screened by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, a multifactorial logistic regression column-line graph model was constructed, and the relationship between risk factors and prognosis was analyzed by multifactorial Cox regression and Kaplan-Meier survival curves. The model performance was verified by consistency index (C index), receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve, decision curve analysis (DCA) and clinical impact curve (CIC). Results: The mean age was 62.1 years in the training set and 63.3 years in the validation set, with mortality rates of 11.1% and 11.9%, respectively. LASSO regression identified age, dust exposure duration, dyspnea, blood oxygen saturation (SpO Conclusion: The prediction model based on CRP, IL-6, and clinical characteristics effectively identifies pneumoconiosis patients at high risk of short-term poor prognosis, providing a reliable basis for early intervention due to its high discriminatory power and clinical applicability.
