Serum Urea-to-Albumin Ratio Is an Independent Predictor of Intra-Hospital Mortality in Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit Patients with Spontaneous Intracerebral 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
The negative prognostic value of an increased serum urea-to-albumin ratio on intra-hospital mortality is frequently investigated in general critically ill patients and patients with septic shock, although not in neurosurgical patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhages (ICH). The current study was conducted to investigate the impact of the serum urea-to-albumin ratio upon hospital admission on intra-hospital mortality in ICU-admitted neurosurgical patients with spontaneous ICH.
methodsThis retrospective study analyzed 354 ICH patients, who were treated from 10/2008 to 12/2017 at our intensive care units (ICU). Blood samples were taken upon admission, and the patients' demographic, medical, and radiological data were analyzed. A binary logistic regression analysis was performed for the identification of independent prognostic parameters for intra-hospital mortality.
resultsOverall, the intra-hospital mortality rate was 31.4% (n = 111). In the binary logistic analysis, a higher serum urea-to-albumin ratio (OR = 1.9, CI = 1.23-3.04,
conclusionA serum urea-to-albumin ratio greater than 1.1 seems to be a prognostic marker to predict intra-hospital mortality in patients with ICH.
