Bench to Bedside: Proteomic Biomarker Analysis of Cerebrospinal Fluid in Patients With Spondylomyelopathy.
Review in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Establishing proteomic biomarkers is critical for characterizing disease pathophysiology, identifying genetic risk factors, and predicting clinical outcomes. However, diseases like cervical spondylomyelopathy have not been actively characterized for molecular significance, leading to questions regarding the pathology's molecular mechanisms. Namely, spondylomyelopathy is a degenerative spinal disease that leads to compression and neurologic deficits in the spinal cord. Analyzing a patient's cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has been well-known for revealing biomarkers that are associated with diseases of the central nervous system. Therefore, in this review, we will formulate a proteomic profile of spondylomyelopathy through a molecular analysis of the CSF. The proteins found to be upregulated in the CSF include vitamin D-binding protein (VDBP), gelsolin, creatine kinase B-type (CK-BB), and angiotensinogen. Meanwhile, the proteins that were downregulated include pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), prostaglandin-H2 D-isomerase (PGH2), apolipoprotein E (APOE), and clusterin. The cellular functions of these proteins are discussed, along with their relevance in manifesting spondylomyelopathy. However, further studies are warranted, as a lack of human studies is a major limiting factor. Nevertheless, based on the continued progression of the proteomic profile of spondylomyelopathy, new targets can be assessed as candidates for future therapeutic intervention.
