Association of sTREM-1 and Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio as Prognostic Markers in COVID-19 Short- and Long-Term Mortality.
Article in Journal of inflammation research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Aim: Current problem related to COVID-19 is various complications after disease, especially long-term mortality after COVID-19. Routine blood tests presented their effectiveness in the diagnosis, prognosis and mortality of COVID-19. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an important marker of systemic inflammation. Soluble Trigger receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) is considered an intrinsic enhancer of inflammatory signals. This study examined the predictive value of these markers in COVID-19 mortality. Methods: A prospective study was conducted involving patients with COVID-19 in Karaganda, Kazakhstan. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was calculated as the absolute number of neutrophils divided by the absolute number of lymphocytes. The level of sTREM-1 in the blood serum was evaluated by ELISA. Results: Plasma sTREM-1 concentration greater than 59.08 pg/mL and an NLR greater than 2.29 had an increased risk of early mortality (hazard ratio = 8.07; 95% CI: 1.03-62.17 and 9.24; 95% CI: 1.202-71.08, respectively); for long-term mortality of sTREM-1 greater than 47.34 pg/mL (hazard ratio = 7.96; 95% CI: 1.072-59.18) and NLR greater than 2.10 (hazard ratio = 11.52; 95% CI: 1.551-85.52). Conclusion: This study suggests that early levels of sTREM-1 and NLR are associated with the risk of 6-month mortality after experiencing COVID-19.
