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

This study examined the relationship between the neutrophil-to-albumin ratio (NPAR) and both all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in U.S. patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and abnormal glucose metabolism, using NHANES data from 1999 to 2018. Restricted cubic spline analysis identified a significant nonlinear association between NPAR and mortality (p < 0.001). Cox regression results showed that patients in the highest NPAR group (T3, ≥ 15.8) had higher risks of all-cause (HR 1.75, 95% CI 1.50-2.04) and cardiovascular mortality (HR 2.03, 95% CI 1.53-2.68) compared to the lowest group (T1, < 13.5), both with p < 0.0001. Kaplan-Meier survival curves confirmed greater mortality in the T3 group. Mediation analysis found that renal function, measured by eGFR, accounted for 14.49% of the effect on all-cause mortality and 13.38% on cardiovascular mortality. Among the 3163 participants, 1342 experienced all-cause deaths and 462 cardiovascular deaths. This study demonstrated a significant correlation of high NPAR and increased mortality in patients with abnormal glucose metabolism and CVD, suggesting that NPAR may represent a reliable predictor of mortality risk in this population, and emphasizing the importance of both inflammation and renal function monitoring.
