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

Lately, long noncoding (lnc) RNAs are increasingly appreciated for their involvement in multiple sclerosis (MS). In inflammation and autoimmunity, a role of apoprotein A1 (ApoA1), mediated by sphingosine 1-phosphate receptors (S1PRs), was reported. However, the epigenetic mechanisms regulating these biomolecules and their role in MS remains elusive. This case control study investigated the role of ApoA1, sphingosine kinase 1 and 2 (SPHK1 & 2), S1PR1 & 5, interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin 17 (IL17) in MS, beside three lncRNA: APOA1-AS, IFNG-AS1, and RMRP. Expression of SPHKs, S1PRs, and lncRNAs were measured in 72 relapsing-remitting MS patients (37 during relapse and 35 in remission) and 28 controls. Plasma levels of ApoA1, IFN-γ and IL17 were determined. The impact of these parameters on MS activity, relapse rate and patient disability was assessed. APOA1-AS, IFNG-AS1, SPHK1 & 2, and S1PR5 were upregulated in RRMS patients. Differences in ApoA1, SPHK2, and IL17 were observed between relapse and remission. Importantly, ApoA1, SPHK2, and IL17 were related to activity, while S1PR1 and IFN-γ were linked to disability, though, only IFN-γ was associated with relapse rate. Finally, an excellent diagnostic power of IFN-γ, IL17, SPHK1 and APOA1-AS was demonstrated, whereas SPHK2 showed promising prognostic power in predicting relapses.
