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

purposeEnteroviruses (EV) comprises many different types and are the most common cause of aseptic meningitis. How the virus affects the brain including potential differences between types are largely unknown. Measuring biomarkers in CSF is a tool to estimate brain damage caused by CNS infections.

methodsA retrospective study was performed in samples from 38 patients with acute neurological manifestations and positive CSF-EV RNA (

resultsThere were no increased levels of GFAP (

conclusionThere are no indication of neuronal or astrocyte damage in patients with EV meningitis. Yet, decreased concentrations of Aβ40, Aβ42, P-tau and T-tau were shown, a finding of unknown importance. Cognitive impairment after acute disease occurs, but with only a limited number of patients analysed, no conclusion can be drawn concerning any association with biomarker levels or EV types.
