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/

aimsTo assess the correlation between indocyanine green retention rate at 15 minutes (ICG-R15), liver stiffness mea surement (LSM), and other clinical indicators in cirrhotic patients, using hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) as a reference and to evaluate the predictive capability of ICG-R15 for clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH). MATERIALS AND

methodsFrom February 2023 to September 2024, 80 cirrhotic patients were recruited. Data collected included baseline information, laboratory results, HVPG measurements, and ICG-R15 via the ICG clearance test. Patients were classified into non-CSPH (n = 33) and CSPH (n = 47) groups based on HVPG. Pearson's correlation analyzed relationships between HVPG, ICG-R15, LSM, and other indicators. Logistic regression was used to identify risk factors for CSPH and develop a predictive model, evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve.

resultsThe CSPH patients showed lower white blood cell count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, platelet count (PLT), and albumin, with higher total bilirubin (TBil), prothrombin time, LSM, and ICG-R15. Significant correlations were found between HVPG and ICG-R15 (r = 0.662) and LSM (r = 0.633) (both P < .001). The ICG-R15, LSM, PLT, and TBil were independent risk factors for CSPH. The model had an AUC of 0.947, sensitivity of 78.72%, and specificity of 96.97%.

conclusionThe ICG-R15 is a significant predictor of CSPH, and a model incorporating ICG-R15 can effectively assess disease severity and predict prognosis in cirrhotic patients.   Cite this article as: Hu H, Lai W, Zhou T, Zhu J, Yan H.
