Lymphocyte-C-reactive protein ratio: a putative predictive factor for intestinal ischemia in strangulated abdominal wall hernias.
Article in Hernia : the journal of hernias and abdominal wall surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 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
purposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate whether it is possible to estimate systemic inflammation and intestinal ischemia in incarcerated hernias using the lymphocyte-C-reactive protein ratio (LCR).
methodsA total of 116 patients who underwent an emergency operation due to incarcerated abdominal wall hernia were investigated retrospectively. The patients with incarcerated hernias were divided into two groups: those who did not undergo intestinal resection and those who underwent intestinal resection due to strangulation. The two groups were analyzed based on sex, surgical operation (open, laparoscopic), length of stay, complications and mortality rates as well as preoperative period laboratory analyses, such as white blood cell, neutrophil, thrombocyte, and lymphocyte counts and C-reactive protein (CRP), neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and LCR values.
resultsTwenty-five patients (21.6%) underwent intestinal resection due to strangulated hernia. Neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, CRP, platelet count, NLR, and LCR were significantly different in the strangulated hernia group. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis results showed that an LCR level below 0.02 had 80% sensitivity (58-92%) and 80.2% specificity (70-87%) for the diagnosis of strangulation.
conclusionA low preoperative LCR level in incarcerated hernias could be used as a bioindicator that helps to estimate the intestinal ischemia.
