Prognostic impact of white blood cell counts on clinical outcomes in patients with chronic renal insufficiency undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

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
Objective: To determine whether the inclusion of white blood cell (WBC) counts in the SYNTAX score (SS) or SS II models could improve the models' performance for risk stratification in individuals with chronic renal insufficiency (CRI) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: In total, 2,313 patients with CRI, who were subjected to PCI and had data available on in-hospital WBC (ih-WBC) counts, were recruited. Patients were divided into 3 groups as per their ih-WBC counts (low, medium, and high). The primary endpoints were all-cause mortality (ACM) and cardiac mortality (CM). The secondary endpoints incorporated myocardial infarction, stroke, unplanned revascularization, and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs). Results: During a median follow-up of 3 years, the high WBC group had the highest incidences of CM (2.4% vs. 2.1% vs. 6.7%; Conclusion: The ih-WBC counts was associated with the risk of occurrence of ACM, CM, unplanned revascularization, and MACCEs in individuals with CRI following PCI. It provides an incremental predictive value for the occurrence of ACM and CM when included in SS or SS II models.
