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 small nucleolar RNA host gene 16 (lncRNA SNHG16) is involved in the pathogenesis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) through the regulation of brain endothelial cell viability, inflammation, atherosclerotic plaque formation, and neural apoptosis. This study aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of lncRNA SNHG16 in AIS patients.

methodsNewly diagnosed AIS patients (N = 120) were serially recruited. Their lncRNA SNHG16 expressions in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR); serum inflammatory cytokines and adhesion molecules were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The accumulating recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed. Moreover, controls (N = 60) were recruited and their lncRNA SNHG16 expressions in PBMCs were detected.

resultsLncRNA SNHG16 was declined in AIS patients compared to controls (p < 0.001). Moreover, lncRNA SNHG16 was not related to any comorbidities in AIS patients (all p > 0.05). Interestingly, lncRNA SNHG16 was negatively related to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) (p < 0.001), interleukin 6 (IL-6) (p = 0.013), and intracellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) (p = 0.024), while positively correlated with interleukin 10 (IL-10) (p = 0.022) in AIS patients. Besides, lncRNA SNHG16 was inversely associated with the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score in AIS patients (p = 0.003). During the follow-up period, in 14 (11.7%) patients occurred recurrence and 5 (4.2%) patients died. Unexpectedly, lncRNA SNHG16 was not associated with accumulating RFS (p = 0.103) or OS (p = 0.150) in AIS patients.

conclusionLncRNA SNHG16 relates to lower inflammatory cytokines, adhesion molecules, and milder disease severity, but fails to predict prognosis in AIS patients.
