Role of proneurotensin as marker of paediatric coeliac disease.
Article in Clinical and experimental immunology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Neurotensin (NT) is a gut hormone functioning proinflammatory through nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and interleukin (IL)-8 secretion or anti-inflammatory through epidermal growth factor receptors. NT mRNA is down-regulated in duodenal biopsies of children with untreated coeliac disease. The aim of this study was to investigate if plasma pro-NT levels correlated with the degree of intestinal mucosal damage and tissue transglutaminase autoantibody (tTGA) levels in children with coeliac disease. Fasting plasma samples from 96 children with coeliac disease and 89 non-coeliac disease controls were analysed for NT precursor fragment pro-NT 1-117 by a chemiluminometric immunoassay. Pro-NT levels were compared with NT mRNA from duodenal biopsies, assessed previously with quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Illumina core exome arrays were used for human leucocyte antigen (HLA) typing and the Marsh criteria applied to score mucosal damage. Tissue TGA was measured by radio binding assay. A general linear model compared pro-NT levels with diagnosis of coeliac disease, Marsh score and HLA DQ haplotype. Spearman's rank test was used to compare pro-NT levels with tTGA, age and duodenal NT mRNA levels, respectively. Plasma pro-NT levels were elevated in children with coeliac disease (median 23 pmol/l higher, P = 0·003) and in those with severe intestinal mucosal damage (median 24 pmol/l higher for ≥ Marsh 3b versus not, P = 0·0004). Pro-NT levels correlated further with tTGA (r
