Association of soluble TREM-like transcript-1 with clinical features and patient reported outcomes in systemic lupus erythematosus.
Article in European journal of rheumatology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveThe soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM-1)-like transcript 1 (sTLT-1) has a modulatory effect on the activation of TREM-1. We compared plasma sTLT-1 levels between patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and healthy individuals and determined the association between sTLT-1 levels and clinical features and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) among patients with lupus.
methodsAn unmatched case-control study was conducted in 46 patients with SLE and 28 healthy subjects. sTLT-1 plasma levels were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Demographic factors, SLE manifestations, comorbidities, pharmacologic profile, disease activity (per SLAM-R), damage accrual, and PROs (as per Lupus Patient-Reported Outcome [LupusPRO]) were studied.
resultsPatients with SLE were found to have lower sTLT-1 levels compared with healthy individuals (9.0±7.2 vs. 18.6±22.3 pg/mL, p=0.008). Among patients with SLE, higher sTLT-1 levels were found in those taking corticosteroids (11.1±8.8 vs. 6.9±4.6 pg/mL, p=0.014). Significant correlations were found for the cognition (r=-0.442, p=0.027) and desires/goals (r=0.435, p=0.030) domains of LupusPRO. A tendency was observed between sTLT-1 levels and the SLAM-R (r=-0.278, p=0.064) and the lupus symptoms (r=-0.388, p=0.055) and physical health (r=-0.382, p=0.060) domains of LupusPRO.
conclusionCompared with healthy individuals, sTLT-1 levels were significantly lower in patients with SLE. Among patients with SLE, correlations were observed for some domains of LupusPRO. Given that sTLT-1 has anti-inflammatory properties, the deficiency of this protein could play an important role in the pathogenesis of SLE.
