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

As the pathogenesis of cerebral small vessel disease with cognitive impairment (CSVD-CI) remains unclear, identifying effective biomarkers can contribute to the clinical management of CSVD-CI. This study recruited 54 healthy controls (HCs), 60 CSVD-CI patients, and 57 CSVD cognitively normal (CSVD-CN) patients. All participants underwent neuropsychological assessments and multimodal magnetic resonance imaging. Macrophage migration inhibitory factors (MIFs) were assessed in plasma. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator model was used to determine a composite marker. Compared with HCs or CSVD-CN patients, CSVD-CI patients had significantly increased plasma MIF levels. In CSVD-CI patients, plasma MIF levels were significantly correlated with multiple cognitive assessment scores, plasma levels of blood-brain barrier (BBB)-related indices, white matter hyperintensity Fazekas scores, and the mean amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation in the right superior temporal gyrus. Higher plasma MIF levels were significantly associated with worse global cognition and information processing speed in CSVD-CI patients. The composite marker (including plasma MIF) distinguished CSVD-CI patients from CSVD-CN and HCs with >80% accuracy. Meta-analysis indicated that blood MIF levels were significantly increased in CSVD-CI patients. In conclusion, plasma MIF is a potential biomarker for early identification of CSVD-CI. Plasma MIF may play a role in cognitive decline in CSVD through BBB dysfunction and changes in white matter hyperintensity and brain activity.
