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

objectiveTo evaluate the adjusted associations and incremental prognostic value of admission white blood cell count (WBC) and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) for unfavorable discharge outcome after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH).

methodsConsecutive adults with CT-confirmed sICH admitted to a tertiary academic hospital in northwestern China from August 2021 through August 2025 were retrospectively reviewed. After eligibility screening, 764 patients formed the study cohort. Admission WBC and log

resultsThe primary complete-case analysis included 752 patients, of whom 358 (47.6%) had an unfavorable discharge outcome. Each 1 × 10

conclusionsAdmission WBC and NLR remained associated with unfavorable discharge outcome after adjustment and improved discrimination beyond established severity measures. They may support preliminary short-term risk assessment, whereas the outcome-derived burden categories require external validation. The discharge endpoint should not be interpreted as a substitute for 90-day functional outcome.
