Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06761053 (Can the Albumin/High Sensitive C-reactive Protein Ratio be Utilized for Predicting Gestational Diabetes Mellitus Diagnosis or the Adverse Outcomes), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

BACKGROUND/

aimGestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common pregnancy complication, characterized by insulin resistance and low-grade systemic inflammation with a pro-inflammatory immune system response. Our objective was to study the peripheral Th1, Th2, Th17 and Treg response in GDM compared to normal pregnancy. MATERIALS AND

methodsTh1, Th2, Th17 and Treg subsets was determined by flow cytometry based on staining for specific intracellular cytokines, as well as C-reactive protein (CRP) and total IgE circulating levels. The health status of all offspring was also assessed 6 months post-delivery.

resultsA total of 49 Caucasian adult pregnant women were enrolled into a GDM (n=26) and Control (n=23) group. At the third trimester of pregnancy, the GDM group had a higher proportion of Th2, Th17 and Treg cells compared to control. Contrary to the control group, the GDM group exhibited no significant change in the Th1/Th2/Th17/Treg profile postpartum. Furthermore, higher circulating CRP and total IgE levels were noted in the GDM group compared to controls. At the 6-month post-delivery assessment, 30.8% of the offspring from the GDM group were found to have developed atopic dermatitis, food allergy or allergic proctocolitis compared to none from the control group.

conclusionCompared to an uncomplicated pregnancy, GDM exhibits a significantly different peripheral T-cell profile at the third pregnancy trimester characterized by higher proportion of Th2, Th17 and Treg cells which persist six months post-delivery, while the increased high sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) levels stressed the low-grade inflammatory profile of this disease.
