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

The present study aimed to explore the expression and significance of S100 protein β (S100β), cystatin C (CysC), and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). ACI patients (n=120) were selected as the experimental group at Xuzhou Central Hospital from August 2016 to August 2018. Ninety healthy subjects who underwent a physical examination at Xuzhou Central Hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. The expression levels of S-100β, CysC and NF-κB were compared between the two groups. Serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB levels were compared between ACI patients with different degree of nervous functional defects, different infarct size and different prognosis. ROC curve analysis was used for the diagnosis of ACI by serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB levels. Serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB levels in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The levels of serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB in patients with different neurological deficits were significantly different. The levels of serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB in the severe and medium type infarction group were significantly higher than those in the mild type infarction group (both P<0.05). The levels of serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB in the severe type infarction group were higher than those in the medium type infarction group (P<0.05). There were significant differences in serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB levels in patients with different infarct sizes. The levels of serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB in patients with large and medium size infarction were higher than those in the small size infarction group (both P<0.05). The levels of serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB in patients with large size infarction were higher than those in patients with medium size infarction (P<0.05). Serum S-100β, CysC and NF-κB levels in patients of the worsening group were significantly higher than those in patients of the non-worsening group. The levels of S-100β, CysC, NF-κB in ACI patients were significantly higher than those in healthy subjects. Increased levels of S-100β, CysC and NF-κB can be used as ideal indexes for diagnosing cerebral infarction and studying the condition.
