The role of platelet count, mean platelet volume, and the mean platelet volume/platelet count ratio in predicting postoperative vomiting in children after deep sedation.
Article in Saudi medical journal, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
objectivesTo determine the role of hemogram parameters such as platelet count (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), and the MPV/PLT ratio in predicting the risk of postoperative vomiting (POV) in children after tooth extraction under deep sedation.
methodsA total of 100 American Society of Anesthesiology Classification I and II pediatric patients who underwent tooth extraction procedures under a standard anesthetic method were included in the study between 2012 and 2014. The study took place at the Faculty of Dentistry, Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Erciyes University, Erciyes, Turkey Fifty patients without POV (group 1) and 50 patients with POV (group 2) were retrospectively selected randomly from the records of 885 consecutive patients. Age, gender, duration of the operation, and preoperative hemogram findings were recorded.
resultsThere was a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups in terms of MPV (p less than 0.001), PLT (p=0.006), and MPV/PLT (p less than 0.001) ratio. Mean platelet volume and MPV/PLT ratio were higher in group 2, whereas PLT was higher in group 1.
conclusionThe PLT count, MPV, and MPV/PLT ratio may be used to predict POV in children.
