Assessment of the Predictive Ability of the Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio in Patients with In-Stent Restenosis after COVID-19.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 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
backgroundThe neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is an independent predictor of the severity of coronary heart disease and COVID-19. This study aims to assess the predictive ability of the NLR in patients with in-stent restenosis after COVID-19. MATERIALS AND
methodsa cross-sectional study included 931 patients who underwent repeated myocardial revascularization between May 2020 and May 2023. The 420 patients of the main group had in-stent restenosis, of which 162 patients had COVID-19 previously. The control group included 511 patients without stent restenosis (107 patients had COVID-19 previously). All reported events were verified by hospital electronic records from the Complex Medical Information System.
resultsThe mean values of the NLR were 2.51 and 2.68 in the study groups, respectively. A statistically significant positive relationship in both groups was found between the NLR and troponin, D-dimer, C-reactive protein, creatinine, ALT, and AST. A statistically significant positive relationship was found between NLR and myocardial infarction (MI) in patients of both groups (
conclusionsNLR is one of the significant factors for predicting the development of adverse outcomes in patients with revascularized myocardium after COVID-19.
