The association of allergic rhinitis severity with neutrophil-lymphocyte and platelet-lymphocyte ratio in adults.
Article in European archives of oto-rhino-laryngology : official journal of the European Federation of Oto-Rhino-Laryngological Societies (EUFOS) : affiliated with the German Society for Oto-Rhino-Laryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2019.

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
objectiveTo investigate the association of allergic rhinitis (AR) severity with neutrophil-lymphocyte and platelet-lymphocyte ratios in adult patients.
methodsThe study design was prospective observational study and the study included 209 AR patients and 243 healthy individuals. The patient group comprised 38.2% males with a mean age of 31.8 years. All patients who were diagnosed with persistent AR were included. The healthy control group comprised 52.7% males with a mean age of 32.3 years. The blood examination results of patients and healthy individuals were compared in terms of neutrophil-lymphocyte and platelet-lymphocyte ratios. The values were further compared within the patient group, according to AR severity.
resultsThe neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio was 1.70 ± 0.65 in the healthy group and 2.02 ± 1.24 in the patient group. The platelet-lymphocyte ratio result was 100.85 ± 25.33 in the healthy group and 120.67 ± 40.59 in the patient group. When we compared the neutrophil-lymphocyte and platelet-lymphocyte ratios between the groups, we found statistically significant differences in both ratios (p = 0.003, p = 0.000, respectively). Both the neutrophil-lymphocyte and the platelet-lymphocyte ratios were higher in patients with moderate-severe AR.
conclusionBoth neutrophil-lymphocyte and platelet-lymphocyte ratios are useful markers for diagnosis of persistent AR. Specialists may benefit from these markers to assess the severity of the disease at the beginning of the diagnostic process.
