Mean Platelet Volume to Platelet Count Ratio Predicts Left Atrial Stasis in Patients with Non-Valvular Atrial Fibrillation.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2023. 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
Background: The mean platelet volume to platelet count ratio (MPV/PC) has been investigated in the diagnosis, prognosis and risk stratification in several diseases. However, the predictive role of MPV/PC in left atrial stasis (LAS) of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) patients remains unknown. Methods: A total of 217 consecutive NVAF patients undergoing transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) evaluation were retrospectively enrolled. The demographic, clinical, admission laboratory and TEE data were extracted and analyzed. Patients were categorized into those with or without LAS. The associations between the MPV/PC ratio and LAS were assessed by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: There were 24.9% (n = 54) patients with LAS according to TEE. Compared with patients without LAS, the MPV/PC ratio was significantly higher in those with LAS (5.6±1.6 vs 4.8±1.0, P < 0.001). After multivariable adjustment, higher MPV/PC ratio levels (OR 1.747, 95% CI 1.193-2.559, P = 0.004) were positively associated with LAS, with the optimal cut-point for LAS prediction of 5.36 (area under the curve, AUC = 0.683, sensitivity 48%, specificity 73%, 95% CI 0.589-0.777, P < 0.001). The stratification analysis showed that a significant positive correlation between MPV/PC ratio ≥5.36 and LAS in patients of male, younger (<65 years), paroxysmal AF, without history of stroke/TIA, CHA Conclusion: Increasing MPV/PC ratio was associated with an increased risk of LAS, which was mainly reflected in the subgroups of male, younger (<65 years), paroxysmal AF, without history of stroke/TIA, CHA
