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

Purpose: The study was designed to investigate the profile of plasma human growth cytokines in pediatric vasovagal syncope (VVS). Materials and methods: In the discovery set of the study, plasma human growth cytokines were measured using a Quantiboby Human Growth Factor Array in 24 VVS children and 12 healthy controls. Scatter and principal component analysis (PCA) diagrams were used to describe the samples, an unsupervised hierarchical clustering analysis was used to categorize the samples. Subsequently, the cytokines obtained from the screening assays were verified with a suspension cytokine array in the validation set of the study including 53 VVS children and 24 controls. Finally, the factors associated with pediatric VVS and the predictive value for the diagnosis of VVS were determined. Results: In the discovery study, the differential protein screening revealed that the plasma hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), transforming growth factor b1 (TGF-b1), insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-4, and IGFBP-1 in children suffering from VVS were higher than those of the controls (all adjust Conclusion: Plasma human growth cytokine profiling changed in pediatric VVS. Elevated plasma concentrations of HGF and IGFBP-1, and decreased EGF were associated factors in the development of pediatric VVS. The abovementioned three proteins are helpful for the diagnosis of pediatric VVS.
