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: Inflammation is associated with the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. The blood markers for systemic inflammation include neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR), system inflammation response index (SIRI), and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR). However, these inflammation markers and their relationships with clinical phenotypes among Han Chinese patients with first-episode adolescent-onset schizophrenia (AOS) is unclear. This investigation aimed to elucidate the impact of inflammation on Han Chinese AOS patients as well as the association of blood-based inflammation markers with clinical symptoms. Methods: Altogether, 203 Han Chinese individuals participated in this study, 102 first-episode AOS patients and 101 healthy controls. The assessment of inflammatory indices was based on complete blood cell count. Furthermore, schizophrenia-related clinical symptoms were evaluated using the five-factor model of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Results: In Han Chinese first-episode AOS patients, levels of SIRI, PLR, SII, and NLR were significantly increased ( Conclusions: This research established the involvement of peripheral blood inflammatory markers (LMR, NLR, SII, and SIRI) with the clinical manifestations and pathophysiology of schizophrenia, and these can serve as screening tools or potential indices of the inflammatory state and AOS symptoms severity.
