Expression of autophagy-related genes in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with tuberculous meningitis.

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
The expression of autophagy-related genes in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with tuberculous meningitis (TBM) and their clinical significance in patients with TBM was investigated. Sixty patients with TBM (observation group) and twenty healthy volunteers during the same period (control group) were selected and the cerebrospinal fluid was collected. The expression levels of p62, Beclin1 and LC3-II genes in cerebrospinal fluid were detected via semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and patients in observation group were divided into high expression and normal or low expression group on the basis of LC3-II expression levels. On the other hand, the contents of inflammatory factors interleukin-6, -10 (IL-6, -10), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit. The mRNA levels of p62, Beclin1 and LC3-II in cerebrospinal fluid of patients in observation were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.01). TUNEL assay showed that the apoptosis level of cerebro-spinal fluid in high expression was obviously lower than that in normal or low expression group (P<0.01); the content of IL-6 and TNF-α in cerebrospinal fluid in high expression was significantly lower than those in normal or low expression group (P<0.01); the content of IL-10 in cerebrospinal fluid in high expression was obviously higher than that in normal or low expression group (P<0.01). Correlation analysis revealed that LC3-II was positively correlated with IL-10, but negatively correlated with IL-6 and TNF-α. The mRNA levels of p62, Beclin1 and LC3-II in cerebrospinal fluid of patients with TBM are increased, there is a correlation between expression levels of autophagy-related genes and inflammatory factors, and the high expression of autophagy-related genes may have a protective effect on patients with TBM.
