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

objectiveTo explore the relationship between aging and the expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP) and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant (CINCs) in patients with pneumonia.

resultsBacteria counts in senile group were significantly higher than non-senile group, and while white blood cell and neutrophil counts in senile group were observably lower than non-senile group. The concentration of MCP-1 was significantly higher in senile group compared with the non-senile group, and the expression of CINC-1 and CINC-2α was also higher in senile group. In all patients with different pathogens, expression of all the factors was significantly higher in senile group compared with the non-senile group. What's more, expression of MCP-1, CINC-1 and CINC-2α showed significant difference in some patients with different pathogens. CINC-2β and CINC-3 expression was not detected in both groups. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe present study included 800 patients with pneumonia who were hospitalized to the Department of Respiratory Medicine in Tongji Hospital during the period from December of 2014 to June of 2016. All patients were divided into two groups: senile pneumonia and non-senile pneumonia group. Bacteria, white blood cell and neutrophil counts were determined by automatic blood cell analyzer. The expression of MCP-1, CINC-1, CINC-2α, CINC-2β and CINC-3 was determined by ELISA assay.

conclusionsAging can increase the expression of MCP-1,CINC-1 and CINC-2α in patients with pneumonia, which may lead to increased risk of pneumonia in the elderly.
