The effect of inflammatory cytokines and the level of vitamin D on prognosis in Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne viral disease. Its pathogenesis basically involves endothelial damage. The aim of this study was to determine serum IL2, IL6, IL 10 and 25 OH Vitamin D levels in patients with CCHF and also to reveal their role in the clinical course and prognosis of the disease. Diagnosis of CCHF was confirmed using the positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test and/or positive IgM antibody by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Serum IL-2, IL-6, IL-10 and total 25 OH Vitamin D levels were also measured using ELISA. Eighty CCHF patients and 110 healthy controls were enrolled. IL2, IL6 and IL10 levels were significantly higher in the patient group. IL 6 and IL 10 levels were significantly higher in the fatal group. There was a positive correlation between Vitamin D and AST (r=0.402; P<0.001), and another positive correlation between IL-6 and CK (r=0.714; P<0.001). High IL6 and L10 levels are a significant indicator of fatality. Cytokines are only one of the factors responsible for mortality. We conclude that the pathogenesis of the disease can be better understood by elucidating the complicated cytokine network.
