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

objectiveWe aimed to identify the biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that facilitate the diagnosis of lymphomas with central nervous system (CNS) involvement.

methodsFour cases of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) patients with/without CNS involvement were enrolled respectively, and non-CNS tumor patients (n=3) were selected to be the controls. Lab biomarkers, cytokines, and tight junction proteins (TJs) in CSF and serum were measured.

resultsWhen comparing the CNS to non-CNS group, cytokine including MMP-9 (15.24 vs 0.36 ng/mL), CCL-2 (1922.04 vs 490.68 pg/mL), and sVCAM-1 (61.36 vs 9.00 pg/mL), TJs including OCLN (6.68 vs 2.59 pg/mL), and ZO-1 (710.04 vs 182.98 pg/mL) in CSF were significantly higher in lymphomas patients with CNS involvement than those without CNS involvement. However, serum biomarkers were not significantly elevated. Contrary to the major findings, all conventional biomarkers and MRI results showed no significant change.

conclusionCSF biomarkers affecting BBB disruption are valuable in mirroring the risk of lymphoma CNS metastasis. Further study with a larger sample size is needed to verify these biomarkers in predicting lymphoma CNS involvement.
