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

backgroundLong non-coding RNA intersectin 1-2 (lnc-ITSN1-2) exacerbates inflammation and promotes T-helper (Th) cell differentiation, also serves as a biomarker in critical illness diseases. However, its clinical role in sepsis remains obscure. Hence, the study aimed to explore the relationship of lnc-ITSN1-2 with Th cells, inflammation, disease severity, multiple organ dysfunction, and mortality risk in sepsis.

methodsPeripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated from 95 sepsis patients and 50 health controls, followed by lnc-ITSN1-2 evaluation using RT-qPCR. PBMC Th1, Th17 cells and their secreted cytokines in serum were detected by flow cytometry and ELISA, respectively.

resultsLnc-ITSN1-2 in sepsis patients was higher than it in health controls (Z = -7.328, p < 0.001). Lnc-ITSN1-2 correlated with increased interferon-gamma (p = 0.009), Th17 cells (p = 0.022), and interleukin-17A (p = 0.006), but not Th1 cells (p = 0.169) in sepsis patients. Moreover, lnc-ITSN1-2 had a positive connection with C-reactive protein (p = 0.001), acute pathologic and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II (p = 0.024), and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scores (p = 0.022). Regarding SOFA subscales, lnc-ITSN1-2 linked with elevated respiratory system score (p = 0.005), cardiovascular system score (p = 0.007), and renal system score (p = 0.004) but no other subscales. Besides, lnc-ITSN1-2 had an increasing trend, but no statistical difference, in septic deaths compared to survivors (Z = -1.852, p = 0.064).

conclusionLnc-ITSN1-2 reflects sepsis progression and unfavorable prognosis to some extent, which may serve as a potential biomarker to improve the management of sepsis patients.
