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

The rapid rise of monkeypox (MPX) cases outside previously endemic areas prompts for a better understanding of the disease. We studied the plasma proteome of a group of MPX patients with a similar infection history and clinical manifestation typical for the current outbreak. We report that MPX in this case series is associated with a strong plasma proteomic response among nutritional and acute phase response proteins. Moreover, we report a correlation between plasma proteins and disease severity. Contrasting the MPX host response with that of COVID-19, we find a range of similarities, but also important differences. For instance, CFHR1 is induced in COVID-19, but suppressed in MPX, reflecting the different roles of the complement system in the two infectious diseases. Of note, the spatial overlap in response proteins suggested that a COVID-19 biomarker panel assay could be repurposed for MPX. Applying a targeted protein panel assay provided encouraging results and distinguished MPX cases from healthy controls. Hence, our results provide a first proteomic characterization of the MPX human host response and encourage further research on protein-panel assays in emerging infectious diseases.
