[Prognostic utility of inflammatory indexes in critically ill newborns].
Observational study in Revista medica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Critically ill newborns (NB) are susceptible to serious complications due to their immature immune system. Objective: To know the prognostic utility of inflammatory indexes in critically ill NBs. Material and methods: Observational, analytical, longitudinal, prospective study. We included NBs hospitalized, critically ill and non-critically ill, who had a complete blood count at 12 hours of life (initial) and within 24 hours prior to discharge due to improvement or death (final). Systemic immune-inflammatory Index (SII), Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and Platelets/Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR) were analyzed. There was follow-up from birth to discharge. Results: 211 patients of 33 (32-34) weeks of gestation, weight 1.569 (1.480-1.720) kg. 106 critical NB and 105 non-critical NB, with 50 deaths in the former group, were analyzed. The final NLR ≥ 1.38 (sensitivity [S] 58%, specificity [Sp] 58%, AUC 0.60 [p 0.006]) identified critically ill NBs compared to non-critical ill NBs; final NLR ≥ 1.84 (S 71%, Sp 71%, AUC 0.79 [p < 0.0001]) identified critically ill NBs who died compared to all those who survived; final SII ≥ 255.411 x 103 (S 55%, Sp 56%, AUC 0.60 [p 0.047]) and final NLR ≥ 1.75 (S 76%, Sp 76%, AUC 0.84 [p < 0.0001]) identified critical NBs who died from those who survived. Conclusion: The final NLR predicts which NBs may perish with respect to all who survive. The final NLR and SII predict among critically ill NBs who may die.
