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

ObjectiveHepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure is a rapidly progressive syndrome associated with high mortality. The aim of this study was to develop a dynamic prognostic score for precise outcome prediction in patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure.MethodsData from a single-center retrospective cohort were used to develop a dynamic prognostic score. The score was subsequently validated in an external multicenter prospective cohort.ResultsA total of 124 patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure were included in the derivation cohort. The change in the delta Chinese Severe Hepatitis B Research Group-acute-on-chronic liver failure II score between day 7 and baseline (δCOSSH-ACLF II 7-0) showed better predictive performance than the baseline Chinese Severe Hepatitis B Research Group-acute-on-chronic liver failure II score. Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified baseline total bilirubin, baseline prothrombin time international normalized ratio, and δCOSSH-ACLF II 7-0 as independent predictors of 90-day survival. We proposed a dynamic prognostic score calculated as follows: Dynamic prognostic score = 0.005 × total bilirubin + 0.609 × prothrombin time international normalized ratio + 1.234 × δCOSSH ACLF II 7-0. The area under the curves of the new score were 0.923 and 0.925 for predicting 28- and 90-day mortality, respectively. These findings were replicated in the validation cohort.ConclusionThe new prognostic score, based on dynamic changes in the clinical course, can accurately predict short-term mortality in patients with hepatitis B virus-elated acute-on-chronic liver failure.
