Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio and Monocyte-Lymphocyte Ratio According to the Radiologic Severity of
Article in Journal of Korean medical science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundTo date, no study has investigated whether the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and monocyte-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) have a clinical value in Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC)-pulmonary disease (PD).
methodsWe aimed to assess whether the baseline NLR and MLR were different according to the severity of MAC-PD based on the radiologic classification by retrospectively analyzing 549 patients treated in a tertiary referral center in South Korea.
resultsBoth NLR and MLR were significantly higher as 3.33 and 0.43 respectively in the fibrocavitary type, followed by 2.34 and 0.27 in the cavitary nodular bronchiectatic type and significantly lower as 1.88 and 0.23 in the non-cavitary nodular bronchiectatic type.
conclusionThe baseline NLR and MLR showed a distinct difference in accordance with the radiologic severity of MAC-PD.
