Association of Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio and the Presence of Neonatal Sepsis.
Article in Journal of immunology research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 39 papers, 3 of them syntheses 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 neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an emerging risk factor of sepsis that is receiving increasing attention. However, the relationship between NLR and the presence of sepsis in neonates is poorly studied. Here, we retrospectively recruited 1480 neonates and collected and analyzed relevant clinical and laboratory data. According to the International Pediatric Sepsis Consensus, 737 neonates were diagnosed with sepsis, and 555 neonates were suspected for having infection. Neonates with hyperbilirubinemia (
