Assessment of diagnostic utility of serum hemeoxygenase-1 measurement for acute exacerbation of interstitial pneumonias.

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.
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
The present study aimed to evaluate whether serum heme oxygenase (HO)-1 could be a reliable blood biomarker for diagnosing acute exacerbations (AEs) of both idiopathic interstitial pneumonia (IIP) and secondary interstitial pneumonia (SIP). Serum HO-1 levels of newly diagnosed patients with IP were measured, and the relationships between serum HO-1 and other serum biomarkers and high-resolution CT scores, were evaluated. Blood samples were collected from 90 patients with IIP, including 32 having an AE, and 32 with SIP, including 9 having an AE. The patients having an AE had significantly higher HO-1 levels than those not having an AE (35.2 ng/mL vs. 16.4 ng/mL; p < 0.001). On receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis for serum HO-1 ability to detect an AE, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.87 in patients with IIPs and 0.86 in those with SIPs. Also, in patients with both IIPs and SIPs, the combination of the serum HO-1 level and the GGO score showed favorable AUCs (IIPs: 0.92, SIPs: 0.83), though HO-1-not-including model (combination of LDH and GGO) also showed acceptable AUCs. Serum HO-1 could be a clinically useful biomarker for the accurate diagnosis of patients with AEs.
