Application of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio and red blood cell distribution width in diabetes mellitus complicated with heart failure.
Article in World journal of diabetes, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundAccumulating clinical evidence has shown that diabetes mellitus (DM) is a serious risk factor for cardiovascular disorders and an important factor for adverse cardiovascular events.
aimTo explore the value of the combined determination of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and red blood cell distribution width (RDW) in the early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of DM complicated with heart failure (HF).
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed clinical data on 65 patients with type 2 DM (T2DM) complicated with HF (research group, Res) and 60 concurrent patients with uncomplicated T2DM (control group, Con) diagnosed at Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital between January 2019 and December 2021. The NLR and RDW values were determined and comparatively analyzed, and their levels in T2DM + HF patients with different cardiac function grades were recorded. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to determine the NLR and RDW values (alone and in combination) for the early diagnosis of HF. The correlation between NLR and RDW with the presence or absence of cardiac events was also investigated.
resultsHigher NLR and RDW levels were identified in the Res
conclusionNLR and RDW were useful laboratory indicators for the early diagnosis of DM complicated with HF, and their joint detection was beneficial for improving diagnostic efficiency. Additionally, NLR and RDW values were directly proportional to patient outcomes.
