Serum circulating sirtuin 6 as a novel predictor of mortality after acute ischemic stroke.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
In a murine model of acute ischemic stroke, SIRT6 knockdown resulted in larger cerebral infarct size, worse neurological outcome, and higher mortality, indicating a possible neuro-protective role of SIRT6. In this study, we aimed at evaluating the prognostic value of serum SIRT6 levels in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Serum levels of SIRT6, collected within 72 h from symptom-onset, were measured in 317 consecutively enrolled AIS patients from the COSMOS cohort. The primary endpoint of this analysis was 90-day mortality. The independent prognostic value of SIRT6 was assessed with multivariate logistic and Cox proportional regression models. 35 patients (11%) deceased within 90-day follow-up. After adjustment for established risk factors (age, NIHSS, heart failure, atrial fibrillation, and C reactive protein), SIRT6 levels were negatively associated with mortality. The optimal cut-off for survival was 634 pg/mL. Patients with SIRT6 levels below this threshold had a higher risk of death in multivariable Cox regression. In this pilot study, SIRT6 levels were significantly associated with 90-day mortality after AIS; these results build on previous molecular and causal observations made in animal models. Should this association be confirmed, SIRT6 could be a potential prognostic predictor and therapeutic target in AIS.
