Lactate dehydrogenase to albumin ratio is associated with in-hospital mortality in patients with acute heart failure: Data from the MIMIC-III database.
Article in Open medicine (Warsaw, Poland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The effect of the lactate dehydrogenase to albumin ratio (LAR) on the survival of patients with acute heart failure (AHF) is unclear. We aimed to analyze the impact of LAR on survival in patients with AHF. We retrieved eligible patients for our study from the Monitoring in Intensive Care Database III. For each patient in our study, we gathered clinical data and demographic information. We conducted multivariate logistic regression modeling and smooth curve fitting to assess whether the LAR score could be used as an independent indicator for predicting the prognosis of AHF patients. A total of 2,177 patients were extracted from the database. Survivors had an average age of 69.88, whereas nonsurvivors had an average age of 71.95. The survivor group had a mean LAR ratio of 13.44, and the nonsurvivor group had a value of 17.38. LAR and in-hospital mortality had a nearly linear correlation, according to smooth curve fitting (
