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
Background: Recent studies have shown that the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has gradually been identified as a more reliable marker of inflammation, with predictive value for the development of many diseases. However, its association with left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction in overt hyperthyroid patients is unclear. Here, we aimed to explore the relationship between NLR and LV diastolic dysfunction in overt hyperthyroid patients. Methods: For this study, we retrospected the consecutive medical files of 350 overt hyperthyroid patients. Their medical data and laboratory findings were recorded. According to the presence or absence of LV diastolic dysfunction, the patients with overt hyperthyroidism were divided into two groups. One group with LV diastolic dysfunction included 104 patients and another group with non-LV diastolic dysfunction included 246 patients. The NLR values between the two groups were compared, and the relationship between NLR levels and the prevalence of LV diastolic dysfunction was also explored. Results: The NLR value in LV diastolic dysfunction group in the overt hyperthyroid subjects was significantly higher than that in non-LV diastolic dysfunction group [1.100 (0.907-1.580) vs 1.000 (0.761-1.405), P=0.016]. The prevalence of LV diastolic dysfunction in Low- (NLR<0.879), Medium- (0.879< NLR<1.287), and High- (NLR >1.287) NLR level groups were 20.9%, 32.5% and 35.7% respectively. Moreover, increased NLR is associated with increased prevalence of LV diastolic dysfunction, and after adjustment for potential associated factors, NLR remained significantly associated with LV diastolic dysfunction. (OR = 11.753, 95%CI = 1.938-71.267, P = 0.007). Conclusions: Our findings demonstrated that the NLR was associated with LV diastolic dysfunction in the overt hyperthyroid patients, and the prevalence of LV diastolic dysfunction may be positively correlated with NLR levels.
