Relationship between C-reactive protein-albumin ratio and prognosis in pediatric patients with severe burns.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a widely requested acute-phase protein. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between albumin, CRP, and CRP-albumin ratio values and hospital length of stay (LOS) in children with severe burns. A total of 150 pediatric patients who were treated in our hospital's burns clinic or burns intensive care unit due to third- and fourth-degree burns between January 2019 and September 2023 were included in the study. The mean CRP-albumin ratio was significantly lower in those hospitalized for 10 days or less than that in those hospitalized for a longer period (p < 0.001). The rates of patients with high CRP-albumin ratio in those hospitalized for 21-30 days and more than 40 days were found to be significantly higher than the other groups (p < 0.001). Hospital LOS was positively and significantly related to CRP-albumin ratios (p < 0.001; r = 0.529). In children with severe burns, low albumin levels, high CRP levels, and high CRP-albumin ratios at hospital admission may be related to clinical presentation and hospital LOS.
