Significance of serum sestrin2 as a biomarker of severity and functional outcome in acute intracerebral hemorrhage: a prospective observational longitudinal study.
Observational study in BMC neurology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundSestrin2 is a highly conserved stress-inducible protein with neuroprotective properties. Herein, we investigated the prognostic significance of serum sestrin2 in human intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
methodsIn this prospective observational longitudinal study, we enrolled 126 patients with supratentorial ICH as cases together with 126 healthy individuals as controls. Severity indicators were National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and hematoma volume. Prognostic parameters were early neurologic deterioration (END) and post-stroke 6-month poor prognosis [modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores of 3-6]. Multivariate analysis was performed to assess relations of serum sestrin2 levels to severity and prognosis.
resultsPatients had statistically significantly higher serum sestrin2 levels than controls. Serum sestrin2 levels of patients were independently correlated with NIHSS scores and hematoma volume, as well as were substantially elevated in order of mRS scores from 0 to 6. Serum sestrin2 was identified as an independent predictor of END and poor prognosis. Based on the receiver operating characteristic curve, serum sestrin2 had a similar predictive ability for END and poor prognosis, as compared to NIHSS scores and hematoma volume. Prediction models of END and poor prognosis, in which serum sestrin2, NIHSS scores and hematoma volume were integrated, were visually described via nomogram, were reliable and stable under calibration curve and were of clinical benefit using decision curve analysis. Also, prediction model of poor prognosis showed dramatically higher discriminatory efficiency than any of NIHSS scores, hematoma volume and serum sestrin2.
conclusionSerum sestrin2 levels, which are obviously increased following acute ICH, are independently related to illness severity and poor clinical outcomes, substantializing serum sestrin2 as a clinically valuable prognostic biomarker of ICH.
