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

purposeSkin involvement is the second most common symptom of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and the prevention of skin lesion development might benefit to lessen the system inflammation burden in SLE. However, the mechanisms of skin lesion in SLE remain unclear. PATIENTS AND

methodsMetabolome based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used for comparison of serum metabolism among 11 SLE patients with skin lesion (SL), 10 SLE patients without skin lesion (SNL), and 16 healthy controls (HC). The analysis of metabolism profiles was through LUG database, Human Metabolome Database (HMDB) as well as Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG).

resultsA total of 14 most meaningful metabolites were found in SL patients compared to SNL patients, and 19 metabolic pathways were enriched. Meanwhile, L-alpha-aminobutyric acid, dehydroascorbic acid, glycine, and L-tyrosine achieved an area under receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve of 0.8636, 0.8091, 0.7727, and 0.7636, respectively, indicating their diagnostic potential for SL patients. In addition, the combined model of L-alpha-aminobutyric acid and dehydroascorbic acid provided better diagnostic accuracy.

conclusionThe metabolomic features of SLE patients with skin lesion could be detected by GC/MS assay. Our study tried to provide new insights into the mechanism of SLE skin injury. Further validation of these findings through larger sample size studies may contribute to the use of metabolic profile analysis.
