Prognostic value of Naples Prognostic Score in locally advanced cervical cancer patients undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy.
Article in Biomolecules & biomedicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of the Naples Prognostic Score (NPS) in patients with locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC) who received curative concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT). Clinicopathological data from 213 (training set) and 106 (validation set) LACC cases undergoing CCRT were retrospectively analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to compare the predictive ability of NPS and other indicators for survival. Cox proportional hazard regression was conducted for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). A prediction model using a nomogram was developed with independent prognostic factors in the training set and validated in the validation set. The 5-year OS for the NPS = 1, 2, and 3 groups was 56.8%, 45.4%, and 28.9% (P < 0.001), and the 5-year PFS for the NPS = 1, 2, and 3 groups was 44.9%, 36.7%, and 28.4% (P = 0.001), respectively. NPS showed better predictive ability for OS and PFS compared to other indicators. Multivariate regression analysis identified NPS as an independent prognostic factor for OS (P < 0.001) and PFS (P < 0.001). A predictive nomogram based on NPS was established and validated. The C-indices of the nomogram in the training set were 0.722 for OS and 0.683 for PFS, while in the validation set the C-indices were 0.731 for OS and 0.693 for PFS. This study confirmed that preoperative NPS could serve as a useful independent prognostic factor in LACC patients treated with CCRT.
