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

backgroundThe aim of this study was to explore the association of systemic inflammatory biomarkers (systemic immune-inflammation (SII) index and systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI)) with the prevalence of ocular disease in the general population of the United States (U.S.).

methodsWe conducted a cross-sectional study of subjects in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005-2008 years. For the analysis of the association of SII index, and SIRI with the prevalence of ocular disease (glaucoma, cataract, age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), and diabetic retinopathy), the restricted cubic spline (RCS) plot, multivariable logistic regression models, and subgroup analysis were performed.

resultsThere was a total of 5377 individuals. As shown by the RCS plot, SII index and SIRI were linked with ARMD risk in a U-shaped pattern. Additionally, the SII index and SIRI were linearly positive with glaucoma and cataract. Finally, the risk of diabetic retinopathy was associated with the L-shaped and N-shaped curves of the SII index and SIRI, respectively.

conclusionsTwo new systemic inflammatory biomarkers, SII index and SIRI, are closely related to the risk of eye disease. There are different associations between SII index and different ocular diseases. This should raise more concerns and lead to better prevention strategies for systemic inflammation.
