Characterization of a Temporal Profile of Biomarkers as an Index for Ischemic Stroke Onset Definition.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
background and purposeStroke is a dynamic process in terms of molecular mechanisms, with prominent glutamate-mediated excitotoxicity at the onset of symptoms followed by IL-6-mediated inflammation. Our aim was to study a serum glutamate/IL-6 ratio as an index for stroke onset definition.
methodsA total of 4408 ischemic stroke patients were recruited and then subdivided into four quartiles according to latency time in minutes (0-121, 121-185, 185-277 and >277). Latency time is defined as the time between stroke onset and treatment at the neurological unit. The primary endpoint of the study was the association of early latency times with different clinical aspects and serum markers. Serum glutamate and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels at admission were selected as the main markers for excitotoxicity and inflammation, respectively.
resultsGlutamate serum levels were significantly higher in the earlier latency time compared with the higher latency times (
conclusionsThe glutamate/IL-6 index allows the development of a ratio for an easy, non-invasive early identification of the onset of ischemic stroke symptoms, thus offering a new tool for selecting early stroke patient candidates for reperfusion therapies.
