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

BackgroundTo investigate the serum C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein-1 (CTRP1) levels in children with acute Kawasaki disease (KD), as well as the relationship between CTRP1 levels and laboratory variables.MethodsEighty-seven children with KD and 38 healthy controls (HCs) were included in this study. General characteristics were obtained from all subjects. Serum CTRP1 levels in all subjects and serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in KD patients were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.ResultsCompared with the HC group, serum CTRP1 levels were significantly elevated in the KD group. Significantly higher serum TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and CTRP1 levels were observed in patients with KD with coronary artery lesions (KD-CALs) than in patients with KD without CALs (KD-NCALs). Serum CTRP1 levels were positively correlated with white blood cell counts (WBC), percentage of neutrophils (N%), thrombin time (TT), procalcitonin (Pct), TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels. Meanwhile, CTRP1 levels were negatively correlated with the percentage of leukomonocytes (L%) in KD patients. Furthermore, serum CTRP1 levels were positively correlated with the time point of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), WBC, N%, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels in the KD-CAL group.ConclusionCTRP1 may participate in the process of vasculitis and blood coagulation during the acute phase of KD.
