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

backgroundViral encephalitis (VE) is a common infectious disease of the central nervous system in children. Children with severe disease may have progressive neurological damage and even lead to death.

aimsTo assess the serum miR-142-3p levels in children with VE and the correlation between miR-142-3p and the severity and prognosis of VE. Besides, its relationship with nerve injury and inflammatory response was assessed.

methodsChildren with VE were regarded as a case group and healthy children served as control. The content of serum miR-142-3p was determined using real-time quantitative PCR. The risk factors associated with severity and prognosis of cases were evaluated using logistic analysis. The discrepancy in miR-142-3p levels, nerve injury-related indicators, and inflammatory cytokines were contrasted among groups. The ROC curve was conducted to assess the diagnostic performance of serum miR-142-3p in predicting prognosis of children with VE.

resultsThe altered expression of miR-142-3p in serum of children with VE was enhanced in contrast to healthy control. Serum nerve injury indicators MBP, β-EP, and NSE levels and serum inflammatory cytokines IL-6, IL-18, and IFN-γ were high in children with VE in contrast to healthy control, and had positive relevance with serum miR-142-3p. Besides, serum miR-142-3p was a risk factor associated with the severity and prognosis of children with VE. Serum miR-142-3p had diagnostic performance in predicting the prognosis of children with VE.

conclusionSerum miR-142-3p content is high in children with VE and maybe a diagnosis marker for predicting prognosis. The specific miR-142-3p expression may be directly related to the severity of nerve injury and inflammatory response for VE.
