High Level of IL-10 in Cerebrospinal Fluid is Specific for Diagnosis of Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma.

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.
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
purposeThe pathological diagnosis of primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) by stereotactic brain biopsy and craniotomy is not often applicable due to the high cost and associated complications. In recent years, some biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), including interleukin 10 (IL-10), microRNAs, CXC chemokine ligand 13 (CXCL13), have been reported to be associated with PCNSL. However, this conclusion was controversial. Therefore, this study was to test whether Th17 cell-related cytokines could be used to distinguish PCNSL from other brain tumors. PATIENTS AND
methodsTh17 cell-related cytokines in CSF were measured in 108 patients with intracranial tumors, which included 66 PCNSL patients and 42 patients with other types of brain tumors. A receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve was utilized to analyze the diagnostic value of the cytokines based on the area under the curve (AUC).
resultsThe CSF IL-10 level and IL-10/IL-6 ratios were significantly higher in PCNSL than in the other brain tumors (58.2 pg/mL VS 1.5 pg/mL,
conclusionThe CSF level of IL-10 is a useful diagnostic biomarker in patients with PCNSL. The CSF levels of IL-4, IL-17A, mature lymphocytes and monocytes/macrophages can be used to increase the diagnostic value of CSF IL-10 level and IL-10/IL-6 ratio.
