Decreased serum uric acid in patients with traumatic brain injury or after cerebral tumor surgery.

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
objectivesTo investigate changes in sUA in patients with TBI or patients after cerebral tumor surgery and the possible mechanism of these changes.
methodsThis prospective cohort study enrolled patients with TBI or underwent cerebral tumor surgery at West China Hospital, China, from November 2014 to May 2018. Serum UA (sUA) levels, urine excretion, UA oxidant product allantoin and other clinical parameters were assessed.
results100 patients were enrolled for analysis. sUA in patients with TBI or underwent cerebral tumor surgery started to decline from day 1 after injury or surgery compared to control. This decreasing trend continued from day 3 (143.2±59.3 μmol/L, 188.8±49.4 μmol/L vs 287.3±80.2 μmol/L,
conclusionThe sUA was decreased in patients with TBI or underwent cerebral tumor surgery.
