Contribution of immature granulocyte level to diagnosis in pleural effusion.

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: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the diagnostic value of neutrophil and immature granulocyte levels in peripheral blood in cases with pleural effusion. Methods: Between May 2019 and May 2020, a total of 117 patients (43 males, 74 females; mean age: 63.1±18.1 years; range, 18 to 93 years) who had pleural effusion and analysis of pleural fluid were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were evaluated in terms of age, sex, presence of comorbid diseases, approach to the pleural fluid, biochemical values of peripheral blood and pleural fluid, hemogram series of peripheral blood, diagnosis of pleural fluid, and mortality. Results: Of the patients, 66 (54.5%) were diagnosed with benign pleural effusion and 51 (43.5%) were diagnosed with malignant pleural effusion. Number of cases with known primary malignancy was 54 (46.1%). Immature granulocyte count number and percentage of venous blood in the malignant pleural effusion group was significantly higher than the group with benign pleural effusion (p<0.05). Conclusion: As a hemogram parameter, immature granulocyte level is an easily applicable, cheap, and a non-invasive method in the outpatient settings.
