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

While the negative consequences of particular illnesses have been associated with the neutrophil percentage to albumin ratio (NPAR), its association with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is still lacking in the broader public. This study examines the relationship between NPAR and CVD prevalence using information from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), with particular attention to potential nonlinear associations. This analysis included 26,225 adults from NHANES 2011-2020. We investigated the association between NPAR levels and CVD using weighted generalized linear models, subgroup analysis, threshold effects, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and sensitivity analysis. Restricted cubic splines were used to assess potential nonlinearity in the NPAR-CVD association. Elevated NPAR levels were significantly associated with increased CVD prevalence (P < 0.001). In model 3, individuals in the highest NPAR quartile had a 46% greater CVD prevalence compared to those in the lowest quartile [OR: 1.46 (1.16, 1.83), P = 0.002], a finding consistent across unweighted logistic regression models. This association remained unchanged by various factors (P > 0.05). While restricted cubic spline analysis indicated potential nonlinearity, it did not significantly improve model fit over the linear model (P > 0.05). This study identifies a significant association between NPAR and CVD prevalence among the broader populace, suggesting the potential influence of inflammation on cardiovascular disease.
