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

introductionAccumulating studies demonstrate that neurotrophins may play a crucial role in a variety of neurodevelopmental disorders. However, little data are available regarding the potential role of neurotrophins in language disorder (LD). This study aimed to investigate serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), nerve growth factor (NGF) and neurotrophin-3 (NTF3) levels in preschool children with LD.

methodsA total of 43 cases with LD and 43 healthy controls aged 18 to 60 months were enrolled in the study. The development levels and psychiatric symptoms of the children were determined by the Ankara Developmental Screening Inventory and Child Behavior Checklist 1.5-5, respectively. Serum neurotrophin levels were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits.

resultsSerum GDNF and NGF levels were significantly higher, serum BDNF and NTF3 levels were significantly lower in the LD group than in the control group. However, with logistic regression analyses, only negative relationship of BDNF and NTF3 levels with the presence of LD remained significant after accounting for the confounders including development level and coexisting psychiatric symptoms.

conclusionsThese results suggest that low BDNF and NTF3 levels have independent negative relationships with LD, which could be contribute to etiopathogenesis of the disorder.
