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

Immunological functions decline with age. Because MS/SzS predominately affects the elderly, it is important to distinguish age-related from cancer-specific changes. Also, MF and SzS are malignancies of CD4(+) T-lymphocytes, further compromising an immune state of the patients. The objectives of this study were to distinguish disease-specific immunological deterioration by performing comparative age-matched Luminex multiplex assessment of 34 serum biomarkers between patients with MF/SzS, HIV-infected individuals and normal controls. Controlling for age, expression level appears to significantly differ between patients with MF/SzS and controls for the following biomarkers: G-CSF, IL-5, MIP-1β, TNF-α, VEGF, EOTAXIN, IL-8, IL-12, IL-2R, IP10, MCP-1, MIG, TNFR1 and TNFR2 (P < 0.05), while others showed normal age-related changes. Interestingly, cluster analysis placed MF/SzS profiles closer to HIV. This further underscores an immunologically compromised state of patients with MF/SzS and suggests its potential self-perpetuating role in disease progression.
