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

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the association between platelet-to-albumin ratio (PAR) and hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), and to assess its potential diagnostic value. Patients and Methods: This retrospective comparative study was conducted at a tertiary obstetrics center between January 2024 and December 2025. A total of 160 pregnant women were included (80 with HG and 80 healthy controls). Demographic, clinical, and laboratory parameters were analyzed. Results: Gravidity and parity differed significantly between groups (p<0.001). Among laboratory parameters, TSH (1.64±0.53 vs 1.20±0.39, p=0.006), potassium (4.06±0.41 vs 3.95±0.43, p=0.003), albumin (42.69±5.72 vs 39.59±8.56, p<0.001), and PAR (6.15±1.49 vs 9.26±2.89, p<0.001) were significantly different. ROC analysis demonstrated that PAR had a cut-off value of ≥6.51 for predicting HG (AUC = 0.825, 95% CI: 0.74-0.88), with 82.1% sensitivity and 66.2% specificity. The positive predictive value (PPV) was 80.9% and the negative predictive value (NPV) was 79.1%. Conclusion: PAR levels were significantly elevated in patients with HG and may serve as a simple and accessible biomarker. However, larger prospective studies are required to validate these findings.
