The Impact of Monocyte to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio on All-Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients with Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement.

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
backgroundInflammation plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of aortic stenosis. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of the monocyte-HDL cholesterol ratio (MHR), a new inflammatory marker, in severe aortic stenosis (AS) patients who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR).
methodsA total of 125 patients with severe AS who underwent TAVR were assessed. Clinical, echocardiographic and laboratory data relevant to the research were retrospectively obtained from the patients' records. The MHR was determined by dividing the absolute monocyte count by the HDL-C value. The primary endpoints were overall and cardiovascular mortality.
resultsDuring a median follow-up time of 39 months, primary endpoints were developed in 51 (40.8%) patients (overall mortality) and 21 (16.8%) patients (cardiovascular mortality). A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed that by using a cut-off level of 16.16, the MHR predicted the all-cause mortality with a sensitivity of 50.9% and specificity of 89.1%. In predicting cardiovascular mortality, the MHR exhibited a sensitivity of 80.9% and specificity of 70.1% when a cut-off level of 13.56 was used. In the multivariate analysis, the MHR (
conclusionsThis study showed a significant elevation in the MHR among patients who experienced all-cause and cardiovascular mortality and this ratio emerged as an independent predictor of all-cause death in patients with severe AS undergoing TAVR.
