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 AND

objectiveLymphoma is one of the most common malignancies in dogs. In human medicine, complete blood count (CBC)-derived inflammatory ratios, such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), have been investigated as potential biomarkers in cancer. However, studies evaluating these parameters in canine lymphoma are limited. This study aimed to compare NLR, MLR and PLR values between dogs diagnosed with lymphoma and healthy controls.

methodsA total of 26 dogs with lymphoma and 10 clinically healthy dogs were included. CBC parameters were analysed, and NLR, MLR and PLR were calculated.

resultsNLR and PLR values were significantly higher in dogs with lymphoma compared to healthy dogs, whereas MLR decreased.

conclusionThese findings indicate that CBC-derived inflammatory ratios, particularly NLR and PLR, are elevated in dogs with lymphoma and may reflect tumour-associated systemic inflammation. Further studies are needed to evaluate their potential clinical utility.
