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

backgroundMonocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) is considered a novel marker of inflammation. However, whether MHR can predict the risk of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) remains uncertain. Our research aimed to investigate the relationship between MHR and DKD.

methodsThis was a cross-sectional retrospective study of 159 participants with type 2 diabetes mellitus. MHR, urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR) and other indexes were measured. According to UACR, participants were divided into normal group (UACR < 30 mg/g), moderately increased group (UACR 30-300 mg/g) and severely increased group (UACR > 300 mg/g). The association between MHR and DKD was analyzed.

resultsMHR was significantly elevated in severely increased albuminuria group (

conclusionsOur findings suggest that MHR can be used as a marker for the presence and progression of DKD.
