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: Data about eosinophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (ELR) and eosinophil-to-monocyte ratio (EMR) in patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) are rare. We aimed to evaluate the role of EMR and ELR in predicting disease severity and mortality in patients with CAP. Methods: A total of 454 patients (76 with severe CAP (SCAP), 378 with non-SCAP) were enrolled from November 18, 2020, and November 21, 2021. Laboratory examination on day 1 after admission was measured. The ELR and EMR values were calculated for patients. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to balance potential confounding factors. Binary logistic regression model was fitted to identify the potential risk factors for disease severity and Cox proportional hazards regression model analysis for mortality in CAP. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to distinguish disease severity and mortality. Results: EMR and ELR at admission were significantly lower in SCAP patients than in non-SCAP patients ( Conclusion: EMR combined with CRB-65 was superior to CURB-65 in predicting mortality in patients with CAP. This new combination was simpler and easier to obtain for physicians in clinics or admission, and it was more convenient for early recognition of patients with poor prognoses.
