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 AND

objectivesSystemic inflammation and renal dysfunction play a central role in the progression and prognosis of type A aortic dissection (TAAD). This study evaluated the SCr score, a composite index combining the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) and serum creatinine, to assess its prognostic value postoperatively. MATERIALS AND

methodsClinical data from 299 surgically treated TAAD patients were retrospectively analyzed. SCr scores were stratified into three levels using optimal cutoffs. Survival differences were examined using Kaplan-Meier curves. Independent predictors of overall survival (OS) and in-hospital mortality (IHM) were identified through multivariable Cox and logistic regression, respectively. A prognostic nomogram integrating SCr and significant clinical variables was developed, and model performance was evaluated and compared with previously published models.

resultsHigher SCr scores were associated with a progressively increased mortality risk. In multivariable Cox analysis, both SCr scores of 1 and 2 emerged as independent predictors of worse long-term survival, with SCr = 2 demonstrating a particularly strong association (hazard ratio (HR) = 4.408, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.786-10.881;

conclusionsThe SCr score was independently associated with preoperative risk in patients with TAAD. An SCr-incorporating nomogram demonstrated favorable discriminative performance for predicting overall survival and in-hospital mortality. These findings suggest that SCr-based assessment may provide complementary information and assist in the identification of high-risk patients within established clinical assessment frameworks.
