Mean platelet volume and red blood cell distribution width is associated with prognosis in premature neonates with sepsis.
Article in Open medicine (Warsaw, Poland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
objectiveTo evaluate the prognostic value of the mean platelet volume (MPV) and red blood cell distribution width (RDW) in sepsis among premature neonates.
methodsThis was a retrospective cohort study conducted in the neonatal intensive care unit between May 2015 and May 2020. Premature neonates with late-onset sepsis were enrolled. The demographic data, blood cell count analysis, C-reactive protein, and blood culture were compared between survivors and non-survivors.
resultsA total of 73 premature neonates with sepsis in the survivor group and 10 cases in the non-survivor group. Significant differences were observed between the survivor and non-survivor groups with regard to birth weight, MPV, and RDW (
conclusionMPV and RDW were independent predictors of prognosis and the combination of the two helps in predicting the prognosis of preterm with late-onset sepsis in the early stage.
