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
aimThis study aimed to investigate the predictive ability of the neutrophil percentage-to-albumin Ratio (NPAR) concerning all-cause mortality and cardio-cerebrovascular mortality in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD).
methodsWe included a total of 807 PD patients from the Peritoneal Dialysis Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University between January 2009 and December 2019 in this study. Patients were categorized into three groups based on their baseline NPAR. The Kaplan-Meier method, multivariate Cox proportional hazard model, and Fine-Gray competing risk model were employed to examine the relationship between NPAR level and all-cause mortality and cardio-cerebrovascular mortality among PD patients. Furthermore, the ROC curve and calibration plots were utilized to compare the performance between NPAR and other conventional indicators.
resultsThe mean follow-up period was 38.2 months. A total of 243 (30.1%) patients passed away, with 128 (52.7%) succumbing to cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. The mortality rates of the Middle and High NPAR groups were significantly greater than that of the Low NPAR group (
conclusionNPAR served as an independent predictive marker for all-cause mortality and cardio-cerebrovascular mortality in PD patients. Moreover, NPAR demonstrated superior predictive potential compared to CRP, CAR, NLR, and PLR.
