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

Delayed neurologic sequelae (DNS) is a common complication in patients with carbon monoxide poisoning (COP). We aimed to investigate the association of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with the frequency of DNS in COP patients. A total of 371 COP patients were investigated in retrospective and prospective studies. A receiver operator curve (ROC) test was performed to evaluate the ability of the NLR to predict DNS in COP patients. The retrospective study included 288 COP patients, of whom 84 (29.2%) were confirmed to have DNS, and 1 (0.3%) died within 28 days. The NLR in the DNS group was significantly higher than that in the non-DNS group (6.84 [4.22-12.43] vs. 3.23 [1.91-5.60] × 10
