Neutrophil Ratio of White Blood Cells as a Prognostic Predictor of
Article in Journal of inflammation research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Introduction: A leukocyte count ≥15,000 cells/mL and serum creatinine of >1.5 mg/dL have been reported as two important predictors of severe CDI. However, the association of the differential ratios of blood leukocytes, and the prognosis of Materials and Methods: A clinical study was conducted at medical wards of Tainan Hospital, Ministry of Health and Welfare in southern Taiwan between January 2013 and April 2020. Hospitalized adults (aged ≥20 years) with hospital-onset CDI (ie, symptom onset after at least 48 hours of admission) were included. Results: A total of 235 adults with an average age of 75.7 years and female predominance (51.5%), including 146 (62%) adults with non-severe CDI and 87 (38%) severe CDI, were included for analysis. Patients with severe CDI had a higher crude in-hospital mortality rate than patients with non-severe CDI (35.6% vs 18.5%, Conclusion: Serum creatinine >1.5 mg/L, a high neutrophil ratio of blood leukocytes (>75%), and the causative
