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

Serum Golgi protein 73 (GP73) is a promising marker for significant fibrosis in adults. However, current diagnostic value of serum GP73 for liver fibrosis in children is unknown. To investigate the relationship between levels of serum GP73 and liver fibrosis in children, we measured serum GP73 in 86 healthy controls and 183 patients with liver diseases using commercially available double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. The value of serum GP73 in fibrosis stage assessment was compared with aspartate transaminase to platelet ratio index (APRI). We found that serum GP73 was decreasing with age in healthy controls, while it was increasing with the extent of inflammation and fibrosis in patients with liver diseases. Though area under the receiver operating curve (AUROC) of serum GP73 for diagnosing significant fibrosis was nearly equal to APRI (0.62 vs 0.64) in patients aged 3 years or older, AUROC for serum GP73 was superior to APRI (0.76 vs 0.67) in patients aged below 3 years, indicating that serum GP73 is comparable to APRI for diagnosing significant fibrosis in children.
