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

backgroundAlarmins, including high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB-1), can be released from damaged tissues and activated cells as inflammatory mediators. We aimed to evaluate HMGB-1 and mitochondrial DNA dynamics and estimate the prognostic value for neurological outcome in patients with post-cardiac arrest syndrome after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.

methodsWe evaluated the dynamics of HMGB-1, mitochondrial DNA, and other variables in patients with return of spontaneous circulation after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Patients were divided into two groups according to the cerebral performance category at 30 days: the favourable outcome group (cerebral performance categories 1 and 2) and unfavourable group (≥3).

resultsTwenty-one patients were included, and 11 demonstrated favourable outcomes. HMGB-1 levels and mitochondrial DNA on day 1 were significantly higher than on days 2, 3, 5, and 7. Plasma levels of HMGB-1 on day 1 correlated with prognostic parameters (estimated interval to return of spontaneous circulation, lactate, and NH3), tissue damage, systemic inflammation, and disease severity. HMGB-1 on day 1 in the unfavourable group was significantly higher than in the favourable group (median [interquartile range] 15.5 [6.65-18.7], 39.4 [17-69.5], P = 0.009). These findings were not observed regarding mitochondrial DNA. Regarding HMGB-1 prediction accuracy for a good neurological outcome, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.864 (95 % confidence interval 0.702, 1.000).

conclusionsHMGB-1 may be involved in acute-phase post-cardiac arrest syndrome pathophysiology, and an increase in plasma levels may be associated with a poor neurological outcome. The study was registered with the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry ID: UMIN000006714.
