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
backgroundCanine lymphoma comprises the majority of haematopoietic malignancies in veterinary clinical practice. Several prognostic factors have been studied and, more recently, there has been an increased interest in the role of the lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) for its prognostic value. To date, the prognostic value of absolute monocyte and lymphocyte counts as well as LMR at the time of relapse in dogs with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma has not been evaluated. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether the absolute monocyte, lymphocyte or LMR at relapse can predict clinical outcomes for relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma dogs treated with chemotherapy. Additionally, the parameters were evaluated for their prognostic value at the time of diagnosis and throughout different timepoints during the course of their first-line chemotherapy treatment. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe retrospectively analysed data from 50 dogs with relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, treated with a CEOP-based first-line chemotherapy protocol. Lymphocyte and monocyte count and LMR were evaluated at different timepoints: at diagnosis, during chemotherapy and at the time of relapse. Overall survival time (OS) and disease-free interval (DFI), as well as overall survival time from relapse (OS
resultsMonocyte and lymphocyte counts and LMR at the time of first relapse were not found to be adverse prognostic factors for OS
conclusionsAbsolute monocyte and lymphocyte counts and LMR at the time of relapse were not found to be prognostic indicators of OS
