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

Aim: The issue of transplant-free survival rate (OS) among patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) remains a persistent concern. In predicting the long-term OS of PBC patients, given the complexity and population specificity of models such as the GLOBE and UK-PBC, our objective is to calculate and assess the risk factors for mortality and 5-year OS among PBC patients based on routine clinical data, ultimately facilitating its clinical application. Methods: This study enrolled 315 patients with PBC from Beijing Ditan Hospital and randomly divided them into a training cohort (n = 189) and a validation cohort (n = 126). Through Cox regression analyses, we identified risk predictors of mortality to develop a 5-year survival nomogram for PBC. The model was evaluated with Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, Decision Curve Analysis (DCA).Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves compared OS across risk groups. Additionally, correlations among the indicators were analyzed. Results: Ultimately, we established a nomogram incorporating Age, NLR, and TBIL. The Area Under the ROC Curve(AUC-ROC) values for the training and validation groups were 0.7251 and 0.7721, respectively, indicating solid consistency and outperforming the GLOBE model. Calibration and DCA curves further underscored the clinical utility of our model.KM curves revealed the model could differentiate OS across risk levels in subgroup. Additionally, a significant correlation between NLR and TBIL (P=0.0021) was observed, potentially impacting patient prognosis. Conclusion: We have constructed a well-performing prognostic model based on Age, NLR, and TBIL. This model shows good discrimination, consistency, and clinical use. It helps identifying high-risk patients, enabling more frequent follow-ups and tailored interventions, potentially enhancing prognosis and clinical outcomes.
