Potential novel proteomic biomarkers for diagnosis of vertebral osteomyelitis identified using an immunomics protein array technique: Two cases reports.

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
rationaleAlthough vertebral osteomyelitis (VO) is commonly associated with high morbidity and high recurrence rate, effective diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of VO are still lacking. PATIENTS CONCERNS: Case 1: a 60-year-old male had had upper back pain for 3 days. Case 2: a 71-year-old female presented upper back pain for 2 days. DIAGNOSES: Based on physical examination and findings of magnetic resonance imaging and findings by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry, they were diagnosed with Staphylococcus aureus VO.
interventionsUsing Sengenics Immunome Protein Array by analyzing autoantibodies in both VO patients, potential biomarkers of VO were explored. OUTCOMES: Four subjects with more than 1600 antigens screened while the results showed that 14-3-3 protein gamma, pterin-4-alpha-carbinolamine dehydratase, fructose-bisphosphate aldolase A, and keratin type II cytoskeletal 8 were highly differentially expressed among VO and controls. Relevant auto-antibody profiles were discovered after intra-group and inter-group comparison, and based on functional rationality, an adapter protein 14-3-3 protein gamma, and pterin-4-alpha-carbinolamine dehydratase that involved in tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthesis, might serve as valuable diagnostic biomarkers. LESSONS: This pilot study on 4 subjects with more than 1600 antigens screened on the Sengenics Immunome protein array provided a general outlook on autoantibody biomarker profiles of VO subjects. Future large-scale trials with longer follow-up times are warranted.
