Diagnostic value of hemoglobin and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio in Behcet Disease.
Article in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The purpose of our study was to investigate the diagnostic value of NLR, hemoglobin (HB) and combine NLR with HB in the BD patients.Sixty-seven patients with BD were diagnosed in the rheumatology or dermatology between June 2015 and June 2019; 92 matching healthy physical examiners were included in our study. SPSS was used for statistical analysis.Compared with the healthy control, NLR was increased (P < .001), while the HB level was decreased (P < .001) in the patients of BD. In addition, ESR and CRP were increased in BD patients. NLR has no relationship with CRP and ESR, while the HB levels were negatively correlated with CRP and ESR (r = -0.293, P = .046; r = -0.431, P = .002). ROC curve analysis revealed the AUC of NLR and HB were 0.797 and 0.798 (P < .001). When combined NLR with HB, the AUC was 0.897 (P < .001). Besides, logistic regression analysis demonstrated that NLR and HB were independent risk factors in the BD patients.We observed that the diagnostic value of NLR, HB and combined NLR with HB in the BD patients were high, particularly when combine NLR with HB. NLR and HB were independent risk factors in the BD patients. In addition, HB levels related to the disease activity of BD patients.
