Corticosteroid-Dependent Leukocytosis Masks the Predictive Potential of White Blood Cells for Delayed Cerebral Ischemia and Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt Dependency in Aneurysmatic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage.

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
A multitude of pathological and inflammatory processes determine the clinical course after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). However, our understanding of predictive factors and therapeutic consequences is limited. We evaluated the predictive value of clinically relevant factors readily available in the ICU setting, such as white blood cell (WBC) count and CRP, for two of the leading comorbidities, delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt dependency in aSAH patients with and without corticosteroid treatment. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 484 aSAH patients admitted to our institution over an eight-year period. Relevant clinical factors affecting the risk of DCI and VP shunt dependency were identified and included in a multivariate logistic regression model. Overall, 233/484 (48.1%) patients were treated with corticosteroids. Intriguingly, predictive factors associated with the occurrence of DCI differed significantly depending on the corticosteroid treatment status (dexamethasone group: Hunt and Hess grade (
