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 Systemic Inflammatory Response Index (SIRI) is a promising inflammatory marker; however, the relationship between SIRI and latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI), as well as its association with mortality rates, remains unclear. The present study aimed to explore the associations of the SIRI with LTBI and all-cause mortality. Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study using data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) cycles from 2011 to 2012. We explored the association between SIRI and LTBI prevalence using Multiple logistic regression models. We used Multivariate Cox proportional hazards model to analyze the association between SIRI and all-cause mortality. In addition, Kaplan-Meier curves, restricted cubic splines (RCS), stratified analysis, and interaction tests were performed. Results: The study included a total of 4,983 adults who participated in NHANES 2011-2012. The mean follow-up period was 92.35 ± 16.82 months, and there were 525 deaths, representing a mortality rate of 10.54%. The occurrence of LTBI is significantly associated with low SIRI levels(OR=0.76, 95% CI: 0.66-0.89), after adjusting for confounders. Among LTBI patients, elevated SIRI levels are significantly correlated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality (adjusted HR = 1.48, 95% CI: 1.01-2.15). RCS revealed a linear relationship between SIRI and all-cause mortality in patients with LTBI ( Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that elevated SIRI levels are independently associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality in patients with LTBI. Notably, SIRI was significantly inversely associated with the incidence of LTBI. Therefore, SIRI may serve as an effective tool for risk stratification in adults with LTBI in the United States. Further research is needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and to explore any therapeutic implications of these findings.
