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

backgroundJNK pathway-associated phosphatase (JKAP) involves in the regulation of inflammation, immunity, and lung injury. The current study aimed to investigate correlation of JKAP with Th1, Th17 cells, acute exacerbation risk, and disease severity in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.

methodsTotally, 45 stable COPD (SCOPD) patients, 45 acute exacerbation COPD (AECOPD) patients, and 45 controls were enrolled. Serum was collected for JKAP, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) (Th1 cytokine), and interleukin 17 (IL-17) (Th17 cytokine) detection. Besides, peripheral blood mononuclear cell from COPD patients was collected for evaluating Th1 and Th17 cells.

resultsJKAP was highest in controls followed by SCOPD patients and lowest in AECOPD patients (median: 105.673 vs. 75.374 vs. 41.807 pg/ml, p < 0.001). Meanwhile, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves revealed that JKAP differentiated the AECOPD patients from the controls (area under curve (AUC): 0.910 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.849-0.970)) and AECOPD patients from SCOPD patients (AUC: 0.726 (95% CI: 0.622-0.830)). Moreover, JKAP positively correlated with FEV

conclusionDownregulated JKAP correlates with Th17 cells, higher acute exacerbation risk, and severity in COPD patients, indicating its underlying potency as a biomarker for COPD.
