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

aimsThe exact pathogenesis of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) remains unclear. A variety of cytokines are involved, but few studies have been performed to explore the novel roles of interleukin-22 (IL-22) and interleukin-35 (IL-35) in NMOSD. Therefore, this study was designed to investigate serum levels of IL-22 and IL-35, and their correlations with clinical and laboratory characteristics in NMOSD.

methodsWe performed a cross-section study, 18 patients with acute NMOSD, 23 patients with remission NMOSD, and 36 healthy controls were consecutively enrolled. Serum levels of IL-22 and IL-35 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The correlations between serum IL-22 and IL-35 levels and clinical and laboratory characteristics were evaluated by Spearman's rank or Pearson's correlation coefficient.

resultsThe serum levels of IL-22 and IL-35 were significantly lower in patients with acute NMOSD and remission NMOSD than in healthy controls (IL-22: 76.96 ± 13.62 pg/mL, 87.30 ± 12.79 pg/mL, and 94.02 ± 8.52 pg/mL, respectively, P < .0001; IL-35: 45.52 ± 7.04 pg/mL, 57.07 ± 7.68 pg/mL, and 60.05 ± 20.181 pg/mL, respectively, P < .0001). Serum levels of IL-35 were negatively correlated with EDSS scores and cerebrospinal fluid protein levels (r = -.5438, P = .0002 and r = -.3523, P = .0258, respectively) in all patients.

conclusionsLower serum levels of IL-22 and IL-35 are associated with disease status in NMOSD. Additionally, lower serum levels of IL-35 are associated with disease severity in NMOSD.
