Higher neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio is associated with renal dysfunction and cardiac adverse remodeling in elderly with metabolic syndrome.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Background: Previous studies have shown that metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with increased systemic inflammation and cardiac mortality in elderly subjects. However, information on the association of inflammation markers with cardiac adverse remodeling is limited in the elderly with MetS. Therefore, we investigated whether the inflammatory marker neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is associated with the cardiac adverse remodeling in Chinese elderly with MetS. Methods: A total of 1,087 hospitalized Chinese elderly (aged ≥ 65 years) with MetS were collected retrospectively. The cross-sectional data of echocardiography and clinical parameters were compared among quartile NLR groups. Results: In the elderly with MetS, higher quartile NLR (≥3.83) was found to be associated with male gender, older age, lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and cardiac left ventricular (LV) dilatation (all Conclusion: Higher NLR is associated with male gender, older age, renal dysfunction, and cardiac adverse remodeling in Chinese elderly with MetS.
