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

backgroundMucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma translocation protein 1 (MALT1) regulates adaptive and innate immune responses in several inflammatory disease. However, clinical involvement of MALT1 in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients remains unclear. Hence, this study was intended to investigate the correlation of blood MALT1 with disease activity, inflammation indexes as well as treatment response of IBD patients.

methodsBlood MALT1 expression in 100 IBD patients [including 25 active (A)-Crohn's disease (CD) patients, 25 remission (R)-CD patients, 25 A-ulcerative colitis (UC) patients, and 25 R-UC patients] and 25 health controls (HCs) was detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction; besides, serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-17A (IL-17A) in IBD patients were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

resultsMALT1 was increased in A-UC patients than in R-UC patients (p = 0.038) and in HCs (p < 0.001), and also elevated in A-CD patients than in R-CD patients (p = 0.048) and in HCs (p < 0.001). MALT1 was positively related to C-reactive protein (CRP, p = 0.011), TNF-α (p = 0.036), IL-17A (p = 0.023), and Mayo score (p = 0.005) in A-UC patients, CRP (p = 0.017), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (p = 0.033), TNF-α (p = 0.004), and Crohn's disease activity index score (p = 0.028) in A-CD patients. But MALT1 was not correlated with either inflammation indexes or disease activity score in R-UC and R-CD patients. MALT1 gradually declined from baseline to W12 in A-UC and A-CD patients (both p < 0.001). Moreover, MALT1 at W4 (p = 0.031) and W12 (p = 0.003) in A-UC patients as well as MALT1 at W12 (p = 0.008) in A-CD patients associated with clinical response.

conclusionMALT1 serves as a potential biomarker for disease surveillance and treatment response prediction of IBD patients.
