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

High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) mediates acute lung injury in a mouse model of paraquat poisoning. However, published reports showing a clinically relevant association between HMGB1 and paraquat exposure are lacking. The objective of the present study was to investigate the potential role of serum HMGB1 level as a prognostic marker of mortality in patients with paraquat poisoning in a clinical setting. This retrospective observational cohort study included a convenience sample of 92 patients with acute paraquat poisoning admitted to the emergency room (ER) of The First Hospital of Jilin University between January 2014 and December 2016. Baseline serum HMGB1 levels and other laboratory parameters were measured on admission. Cumulative incidence of mortality during the first 30 days after admission was 50% (n = 46/92). Serum HMGB1 levels were higher in fatalities than survivors (P = 0.015), 30-day mortality increased with increasing baseline serum HMGB1 level (P < 0.001), and higher serum HMGB1 levels were associated with an increase in 30-day mortality on Kaplan-Meier analysis. Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified baseline serum HMGB1 levels, white blood cell count, and serum lactic acid levels as independent prognostic markers of 30-day mortality. These data suggest that serum HMGB1 levels measured on admission to the ER are an independent predictor of 30-day mortality in patients with acute paraquat poisoning.
