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

Interleukin-6 (IL-6), as one of pro-inflammatory cytokines, plays a key role in Enterovirus 71 (EV71) encephalitis. We investigated the association of IL-6-572C/G polymorphism and serum or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) IL-6 level with EV71 encephalitis in patients with hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). This study was carried out in 59 Chinese Han patients with EV71 encephalitis, 128 EV71-related HFMD without complications, and 232 controls. The IL-6-572C/G polymorphism was detected by polymerase chain reaction-restricted fragment length polymorphism gene analysis. Serum or CSF IL-6 levels were determined using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The patients with EV71 encephalitis had a higher frequency of IL-6-572GG/GC genotype compared to the patients with EV71-related HFMD without encephalitis complications (40.7 vs. 15.6 %, odds ratio (OR)=3.70, 95 % confidence interval (CI)=1.83-7.50, p=0.001). Similarly, the frequency of IL-6-572 G allele among the patients with EV71 encephalitis was also higher than that of patients with EV71-related HFMD without encephalitis complications (23.7 vs. 8.6 %, OR=3.31, 95 % CI=1.80-6.08, p<0.001). Serum IL-6 levels in G carries (CG + GG) (195.1 ± 11.8 pg/ml) elevated significantly compared to CC homozygotes (167.7 ± 6.7 pg/ml) in EV71-infected patients (p<0.001), but no significant differences were observed in CSF IL-6 levels among different genotypes in patients with EV71 encephalitis. Furthermore, G carriers (GG + GC) (10.6 ±.29 mg/l) had significantly higher blood CRP levels compared to CC homozygotes (9.31 ± 1.93 mg/l) in patients with EV71 encephalitis (p=0.005). These findings suggested that IL-6-572 G allele was significantly associated with the susceptibility to EV71 encephalitis in Chinese Han patients, and IL-6-572 G allele might elevate the risk to EV71 encephalitis.
