Predictive Value of Complete Blood Count, Venous Blood Gas Measurements, and Glucose/Potassium Ratio for Delayed Neuropsychiatric Syndrome in Children with Acute Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Due to Coal-Burning Stove.
Article in Turkish archives of pediatrics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectiveDelayed neuropsychiatric syndrome may occur after carbon monoxide poisoning has completely healed. The literature on indicators to predict delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome in pediatric patients is limited. The aim of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of complete blood count parameters, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, platelet/lymphocyte ratio, systemic immune inflammation index, glucose/potassium ratio, venous blood gas parameters, and carboxyhemoglobin in predicting delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome in children with carbon monoxide poisoning due to coal-burning stove. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe patients admitted to the pediatric emergency department with acute carbon monoxide poisoning between 2014 and 2019 were analyzed. The patients were divided into 2 groups as delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome (+) and delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome (-). Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, platelet/lymphocyte ratio, systemic immune inflammation index (platelet count×neutrophil count/lymphocyte count), and glucose/ potassium ratio were calculated.
resultsOf the 137 patients, 46 were diagnosed with delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome within 1 year of carbon monoxide poisoning. A control group was formed from 137 age- and sexmatched children. Glasgow Coma Scale < 15 was found in 11% of patients with delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome (-) and 8.7% of patients with delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome (+) (P = .773). Blood glucose, potassium, glucose/potassium ratio, platelet/lymphocyte ratio, white blood cell, neutrophil count, lymphocyte count, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, systemic immune inflammation index, venous partial pressure of carbon dioxide, carboxyhemoglobin, and methemoglobinemia levels were significantly different between control, delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome (+), and delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome (-) groups (P < .05). The most effective predictors for delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome were systemic immune inflammation index (area under the curve = 0.852; cut-off value > 1120; sensitivity = 89.1%; specificity = 75.8%), neutrophil (area under the curve = 0.841; cut-off value > 8000/mm3; sensitivity = 78.2%; specificity = 79.1%), and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (area under the curve = 0.828; cut-off value > 4; sensitivity = 78.2%; specificity = 75.5%).
conclusionAbout one-third of children with carbon monoxide poisoning due to coal-burning stove develop delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome. Systemic immune inflammation index, neutrophil count, and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio obtained immediately after the poisoning in the pediatric emergency department may be effective predictors for delayed neuropsychiatric syndrome.
