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

Background/aim: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a serious illness characterized by fever and hemorrhage. Endothelin-1 (ET-1), angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2), and endothelial cell-specific receptor tyrosine kinase (Tie-2) are believed to be important markers of the pathogenesis, clinical course, and prognosis of the disease. The aim of this study was to determine ET-1, Ang-2, and Tie-2 levels in adults with CCHF and investigate the associations between these markers and pathogenesis and disease course. Materials and methods: Sixty CCHF patients were included in the study. The patients were classified according to disease severity criteria and Ang-2, Tie-2, and ET-1 levels were compared. Results: Mean serum ET-1 level was 36.62 ± 27.99 pg/mL in the patient group and 3.70 ± 4.71 pg/mL in the control group (P = 0.001). Mean serum Ang-2 levels were 2511.18 ± 1018.64 pg/mL in the patient group and 3570.76 ± 209.52 pg/mL in the control group (P = 0.001). Mean serum Tie-2 levels were 7.35 ± 7.75 ng/mL in the patient group and 0.67 ± 1.26 ng/mL in the control group (P = 0.001). Conclusion: Elevated ET-1 and Tie-2 levels were associated with more severe disease course, while Ang-2 level was negatively correlated with severity in adult CCHF patients. ET-1, Tie-2, and Ang-2 levels are important prognostic parameters in CCHF and may contribute significantly to treatment and follow-up.
