1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 and Purpose: The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between functional prognosis and the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) and systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) at discharge. Methods: A total of 861 patients with AIS were enrolled between January 2019 and December 2021. Blood cell counts were collected on admission. Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the relationship between NLR, PLR, LMR, SIRI and adverse functional outcomes (modified Rankin scale score of 3-6) at discharge. We also used receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves to estimate the overall ability of NLR, PLR, LMR and SIRI to judge short-term functional outcomes. Associations between NLR, PLR, LMR, and SIRI with length of hospital stay were analyzed by Spearman correlation test. Results: A total of 194 patients (22.5%) had poor functional outcomes at discharge. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that NLR (odds ratio [OR], 1.060; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.004-1.120, P=0.037), PLR (OR, 1.003; 95% CI 1.000-1.005, P=0.018), LMR (OR, 0.872; 95% CI 0.774-0.981, P=0.023) and SIRI (OR, 1.099; 95% CI 1.020-1.184, P=0.013) were independent factors for poor functional outcome. The odds ratios of the highest versus lowest quartiles of NLR, PLR and SIRI were 2.495 (95% CI 1.394-4.466), 1.959 (95% CI 1.138-3.373) and 1.866 (95% CI 1.106-3.146), respectively. The odds ratio of the lowest versus highest quartile of LMR was 2.300 (95% CI 1.331-3.975). The areas under the curve (AUCs) of the NLR, PLR, LMR, and SIRI to discriminate poor functional prognosis were 0.644, 0.587, 0.628, and 0.651, respectively. NLR, LMR, and SIRI were related with the length of hospital stay (P<0.05). Conclusion: NLR, PLR, LMR, and SIRI were associated with functional outcome at discharge in AIS patients. NLR, LMR and SIRI were related to hospitalization days in patients with AIS.
