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 pan-immune inflammation value (PIV) has unclear predictive utility for pathologic complete response (pCR) in breast cancer patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). This study aimed to evaluate the PIV's predictive value and develop a nomogram integrating PIV for individualized pCR prediction.

methodsIn a retrospective multicenter study of 507 NAC-treated patients (training cohort: 357; validation cohort: 150), independent predictors of pCR were identified through univariate and multivariate logistic regression. A nomogram was constructed and validated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA). Net reclassification improvement (NRI) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) evaluated the improvement in performance after incorporating the PIV indicator.

resultsThe high PIV patients (cutoff: 316.533) had significantly lower pCR rates than the low PIV patients (

conclusionsThe PIV is an independent predictor of pCR, and the PIV-based nomogram provides a reliable tool for optimizing NAC response prediction in breast cancer.
