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

objectiveTo evaluate the diagnostic value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and systemic immune-inflammation index (SIRI) in peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis (PDAP).

methodsIn this retrospective study, the clinical data from 130 patients who underwent peritoneal dialysis (PD) for the first time at the Cangzhou Central Hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were rigorously reviewed and analyzed. Based on the occurrence of PDAP during treatment, patients were classified into the peritonitis group (n=31) and the non-peritonitis group (n=99). The expression levels and diagnostic value of NLR, PLR, and SIRI were analyzed in the contest of PDAP. Pearson correlation analysis was performed to examine the correlations between NLR, PLR and SIRI in PDAP patients, and the joint diagnostic value of NLR, PLR, and SIRI was evaluated. Additionally, risk factors associated with PDAP were identified.

resultsPatients in the peritonitis group were older than those in the non-peritonitis group, and experienced longer duration of dialysis (P<0.05). The peritonitis group exhibited significantly higher NLR, PLR and SIRI levels than the non-peritonitis group (P<0.001). Pearson correlation analysis revealed significant positive corrections between NLR, PLR and SIRI in PDAP patients. Logistic regression analysis identified NLR, PLR, and SIRI as independent influencing factors for the occurrence of PDAP. ROC curve analysis revealed that the combined use of NLR, PLR, and SIRI for diagnosing PDAP yielded an AUC of 0.935, significantly higher than their individual predictions, along with superior diagnostic accuracy.

conclusionNLR, PLR, and SIRI are independent risk factors for the occurrence of PDA. These indices hold significant diagnostic value for PDAP, and their combined utilization can enhance diagnostic accuracy.
