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

backgroundPrevious studies showed conflicting results regarding soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (sTREM2) level alteration in body fluid in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD).

methodsWe applied the STATA 12.0 software to compute standard mean difference (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI).

resultsThe study showed elevated sTREM2 level in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in AD, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and preclinical AD (pre-AD) patients, compared to healthy controls (HCs) with random effects models (AD: SMD 0.28, 95% CI 0.12 to 0.44, I

conclusionsIn conclusion, the study highlighted the CSF sTREM2 as a promising biomarker in the different clinical stages of AD. More studies were essential to explore the CSF and plasmatic concentrations of sTREM2 alteration in PD.
