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

To analyze the association of IL-1β with recurrence after the first epileptic seizure in ischemic stroke patients and evaluate its predictive value. 238 patients with the first epileptic seizure after ischemic stroke were included in this study. IL-1β expression levels were detected through quantitative Real-Time PCR. Kaplan-Meier method was used to perform univariate analysis with log-rank test. The variables with P < 0.1 were then included in multivariate analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value. Among all 238 patients, 107 patients (44.96%) had seizure recurrence and 131 patients (55.04%) had no recurrence. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that high expression of IL-1β, low age (< 65 years), male, cortical involvement, large lesion size, late onset, severe neurological impairment and partial seizure type were associated with seizure recurrence. Multivariate analysis showed that IL-1β expression level (hazard ratio 2.057, 95% confidence interval 1.296-3.318) was independently associated with seizure recurrence. The area under ROC curve (AUC) was 0.803 (SE 0.030, 95% confidence interval 0.744-0.862) when IL-1β expression levels were applied in predicting seizure recurrence. IL-1β might be a useful biomarker for early discovery of recurrence after the first epileptic seizure in ischemic stroke patients.
