Traumatic Optic Nerve Injury Elevates Plasma Biomarkers of Traumatic Brain Injury in a Porcine Model.
Article in Journal of neurotrauma, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
A diagnosis of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is typically based on patient medical history, a clinical examination, and imaging tests. Elevated plasma levels of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), ubiquitin c-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1), and neurofilament light chain (NFL) have been observed in numerous studies of TBI patients. It is reasonable to view traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) as a focal form of TBI. The purpose of this study was to assess if circulating GFAP, UCH-L1, and NFL are also elevated in a porcine model of TON. Serum levels of GFAP, UCH-L1, and NFL were measured immediately before optic nerve crush and 1 h post-injury in 10 Yucatan minipigs. Severity of optic nerve crush was confirmed by visual inspection of the optic nerve at time of injury, loss of visual function as measured by flash visual evoked potential (fVEP) at 7 and 14 days, and histological analysis of axonal transport of cholera toxin-β (CT-β) within the optic nerve. Post-crush concentrations of GFAP, UCH-L1, and NFL were all significantly elevated compared with pre-crush concentrations (
