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

Common features of amyloid-like proteotoxic aggregates are the ability to bind Congo red (congophilia) and to induce fluorescence of thioflavin-T (ThT). Based on the prior discovery that women with preeclampsia exhibit urine congophilia, we proposed that amyloid-like protein aggregates present in urine also circulate in the bloodstream and this feature is linked to disease severity and clinical phenotype. ThT fluorescence was investigated in 217 paired serum and urine samples from women with severe features of preeclampsia (n=101; median [interquartile range] gestational age [GA], 32 [29-35] weeks), mild features of preeclampsia (n=22; GA, 36 [36-37] weeks), chronic hypertension (n=15; GA, 38 [37-39] weeks), healthy pregnant controls (n=57; GA, 39 [38-39] weeks), and nonpregnant controls (n=22). Serum and urine fluorescence attributable to advanced glycation end products was measured in the same samples with correction for autofluorescence. There were no GA-related changes in ThT fluorescence, although near-term serum ThT fluorescence increased compared with nonpregnant state. Compared with healthy pregnant controls, serum and urine ThT fluorescence was increased in severe features of preeclampsia (
