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

objectiveIn this study, we aimed to investigate the relation of platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in saphenous vein graft disease (SVGD) in patients with stable angina pectoris after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

methodsA total of 455 patients were included in the study. There were 210 patients with SVGD and 245 patients without SVGD. The effects of different variables on SVGD were computed in logistic regression analysis.

resultsThe platelet count, lymphocyte count, PLR, high-density lipoprotein (HDL), Na, and ALT were significantly associated with SVGD. In multivariate regression analysis, HDL and PLR were found to be significantly associated with SVGD.

conclusionTo the best of our knowledge, this is the first study showing the significant association of PLR with SVGD. This study suggests that PLR can be used as a marker of SVGD because it is an easily available and inexpensive test.
