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.

Abstract

backgroundTraumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability across all ages. After the primary impact, the pathophysiologic process of secondary brain injury consists of a neuroinflammation response that critically leads to irreversible brain damage in the first days after the trauma. A key catalyst in this inflammatory process is the complement system. Inhibiting the complement system could therefore be a therapeutic target in TBI.

objectiveTo study the safety and efficacy of C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) compared to placebo in patients with TBI. By temporarily blocking the complement system, we hypothesize a decrease in the posttraumatic neuroinflammatory response resulting in a less unfavorable clinical outcome for TBI patients.

methodsCIAO@TBI is a multicenter, randomized, blinded, phase II placebo-controlled trial. Adult TBI patients with GCS < 13 requiring intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring will be randomized, using block randomization, within 12 h after trauma to one dose 6000 IU C1-INH or placebo. A total of 106 patients will be included, and follow-up will occur up to 12 months. The primary endpoints are (1) Therapy Intensity Level (TIL) Scale, (2) Glasgow Outcome Scale-Extended (GOSE) at 6 months, and (3) complication rate during hospitalization. Outcomes will be determined by a trial nurse blinded for the treatment allocation. Analyses will be conducted in an intention-to-treat analysis. DISCUSSION: We expect that C1-INH administration will be safe and potentially effective to improve clinical outcomes by reducing neuroinflammation in TBI patients.
