The association between monocyte HDL ratio and albuminuria in diabetic nephropathy.

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
objectivesWe aimed to investigate whether Monocyte-to-HDL ratio (MHR) had an association with albuminuria in patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN).
methodsDiabetic patients, who had admitted to the outpatient clinic of general internal disease department between September 2017 - February 2018 and had their spot urinary albumin/creatinine ratio measured, were examined retrospectively. Patients were separated based on the presence of DN. Patients with DN were grouped as Stage-I, Stage-II and Stage-III chronic kidney disease (CKD). Groups were compared in terms of MHR. The presence of a correlation between MHR and albuminuria was investigated.
resultsMHR was found to be higher in the DN (n=85) group compared to Non- DN group. (16.2±5.5 vs. 14.3±4, p=0.037) And there was no significant difference in Stage-I, Stage-II and Stage-III CKD groups in terms of MHR. (15.2± 3.4, 16.1±6.0, 17.1±6.0, p=0.485). No significant correlation was found between MHR and albuminuria in DN and non-DN groups (p=0.634, r=0.052; p=0.553, r=-0.059).
conclusionsDN group had higher MHR than non-nephropathy group, whereas, there was no correlation between albuminuria and MHR.
