Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and fracture severity in young and middle-aged patients with tibial plateau fractures.
Article in International orthopaedics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04807062 (Structural Bicortical Autologous Iliac Crest Bone Graft Combined With Tunnel Bone Tamps Method for Depressed Tibial Plateau Fractures), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
purposeThe neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has recently been found to be closely associated with the severity of trauma. This study aimed to analyze the correlation between the imaging severity of isolated tibial plateau fractures (TPFs) and the NLR in the blood.
methodsA total of 223 patients with isolated TPFs were enrolled in this retrospective study over five years. The data at hospital admission were extracted from an electronic database. Schatzker classification was performed according to the imaging data by two experienced orthopaedic surgeons. All patients were divided into two groups: group 1 included patients with mild-to-moderate fractures (Schatzker types I-IV), and group 2 included patients with severe fractures (Schatzker types V-VI). The NLR levels at hospital admission were statistically compared between the two groups.
resultsThe blood NLR, hemoglobin level, red blood cell count, neutrophil count, platelet count, time from injury to admission, total protein, and Na
conclusionsOur study is the first to demonstrate that the NLR level appears to be a useful biomarker for predicting the severity of isolated TPFs in young and middle-aged adults.
