Predictive Value of Preoperative High-Sensitive C-reactive Protein (hs-CRP)/Albumin Ratio in Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) After Semi-rigid Ureteroscopy.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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 determine the predictive value of high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP)/albumin ratio in systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) after semi-rigid ureteroscopy (URS). MATERIAL AND
methodsBetween April 2021 and October 2021, 148 patients who had ureteral stone treatment with a ureteroscope in our hospital were included. Preoperative hs-CRP/albumin ratio was obtained by dividing the hs-CRP level by the albumin level. High-sensitivity modified Glasgow prognostic score (hs-mGPS) was obtained according to hs-CRP and albumin values. Two groups were identified as post-URS SIRS positive and negative. Inflammation biomarkers were evaluated in groups.
resultsThere was a statistically significant difference between groups in terms of preoperative hs-CRP, albumin, and hs-CRP/albumin ratio (p < 0.001, p = 0.003, and p < 0.001, respectively). The optimal cutoff value for the hs-CRP/albumin ratio was 0.04651. While the risk of developing SIRS after surgery was 72.73% in patients with a hs-CRP/albumin ratio higher than 0.04651, the chance of not developing SIRS was 87.5% in patients below this value. The probability of developing SIRS was found to be significantly different in hs-mGPS (p < 0.001).
conclusionOur study indicated that hs-CRP/albumin ratio can predict post-URS SIRS. Larger-scale, multicentric prospective studies should certainly be done to validate the predictive value of hs-CRP/albumin ratio in post-URS SIRS.
