Monocyte/Lymphocyte Ratio and MCHC as Predictors of Collateral Carotid Artery Disease-Preliminary Report.
Article in Journal of personalized medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
backgroundCarotid artery disease accounts for 30% of ischemic strokes in the general population. Numerous biomarkers have been investigated for predicting either the progression or the severity of the disease. The aim of this retrospective study was to compare hematologic indices among patients referred for surgical interventions due to severe carotid disease.
methodsIn total, 135 patients (87 (64.4%) men and 48 (35.6%) women) with a mean age of 70 ± 8 years who underwent surgical carotid intervention were enrolled into the study.
resultsA Mann-Whitney test for independent samples revealed significant differences in monocyte to lymphocyte ratio (MLR) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) between patients with one and two (collateral) carotid diseases. The cut-off value for MLR was 0.3 (AUC = 0.654,
conclusionsMLR above 0.3 and MCHC above 21.6 have predictive values for colleterial carotid stenosis and may be used as easily accessible indicators for atherosclerosis severity.
