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

Objectives: To evaluate the usability and clinical significance. Missed abortion, a common complication in early pregnancy. Diagnosis typically relies on ultrasonographic findings and clinical criteria. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio have attracted considerable interest. Methods: A total of 120 women participated, with 60 diagnosed with missed abortion and 60 with healthy intrauterine pregnancy. This is a retrospective case-control study. Information for the study was gathered from patient file records. Mann-Whitney U Test was used. Logistic regression analysis assessed the magnitude and direction of the relationships between the variables. Results: The youngest participant was 23, while the oldest was 42. There was no significant difference in age between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was conducted using the following variables: white blood cells, lymphocytes, monocytes, main platelet volume, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio. It was determined that WBC, Lymphocyte, Monocyte, NLR and PLR values can effectively predict cases of missed abortion ( Conclusion: Our study reinforces the hypothesis that inflammatory markers such as the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratios could serve as accessible and cost-effective indicators of early pregnancy loss.
