Clinical impact of transient lymphopenia.
Article in Clinical and experimental medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Transient or persistent immunosuppression is a known risk factor for morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. Aim of the present study is to evaluate the lymphopenia in patients admitted to the Emergency Unit of AOU Policlinico Umberto I, to investigate its prevalence at admission and the persistence during hospitalization until discharge. Possible correlations were evaluated between lymphopenia, diagnosis of admission, comorbidities and chronic treatments. In this study, 240 patients (142 men; 98 female; mean age 75.1 ± 15.1) were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups according to the lymphocytes count at hospital admission, namely "Group A" with lymphopenia and "Group B" with values in the normal range. Moreover, the patients in group A were distinguished in relation to the regression or persistence of the lymphopenia assessed at the time of hospital discharge (Group A1: persistence; Group A2: normalization). Prevalence of lymphopenia at admission was 57%; Group A showed higher mean age and percentage of patients over 65 years of age; and none differences were observed regarding gender. Prevalence of lymphopenia at admission was 57%; Group A showed higher mean age and percentage of patients over 65 years of age; no differences were observed regarding gender.
