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

objectiveHaemophilia A and B are disorders caused by the lack of clotting factors VIII and IX, respectively. Repeated bleeding into the same joint leads to haemophilic arthropathy (HA). Interleukin (IL)-1β is responsible for the pro-inflammatory response and IL-37 is induced by IL-1β stimuli to have an anti-inflammatory response and prevent uncontrolled inflammation and tissue damage. Our objective was to investigate plasma levels of IL-1β and IL-37 in patients with severe haemophilia with different severities of HA.

methodsPeripheral blood samples were collected from 14 patients with severe haemophilia A and 6 with severe haemophilia B, and 18 healthy individuals. Plasma levels of IL-1β and IL-37 were detected by immunoassay, and severity of HA was evaluated using the Pettersson scoring system. Plasma levels of IL-1β and IL-37 were analysed in patients with severe haemophilia grouped by Pettersson score and in healthy individuals.

resultsPlasma levels of IL-1β and IL-37 were significantly higher in patients with severe haemophilia compared with healthy individuals and significantly lower in those with moderate to severe HA than in those with no or mild HA.

conclusionsPlasma levels of IL-1β and IL-37 may be useful to track HA progression in patients with severe haemophilia.
