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

Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the combined predictive value of the Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII) and the Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index (GNRI) for all-cause mortality in cancer survivors. Methods: Using NHANES data (1999-2018), 2,969 eligible cancer survivors were categorized into four groups based on SII and GNRI levels. Mortality risk was assessed through unadjusted and fully adjusted Cox proportional hazards models. Results: The combination of low SII and high GNRI was associated with the lowest mortality risk (HR = 1.0, reference). In contrast, high SII and low GNRI significantly increased mortality risk (fully adjusted HR = 6.178, 95% CI: 2.669-14.299). Both unadjusted and adjusted models confirmed that high SII correlated with higher mortality, while low GNRI independently predicted poorer outcomes. Subgroup analyses revealed significant interactions between the SII-GNRI combination and gender/alcohol consumption. Discussion: The findings highlight SII and GNRI as critical predictors of all-cause mortality in cancer survivors. Their combined assessment may improve risk stratification and guide targeted clinical interventions.
