High Interleukin-13 level is associated with disease stability in interstitial Lung disease.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Purpose: Cytokines can help predict prognosis in interstitial lung disease (ILD) and to differentiate between ILD subtypes. The objectives of our study were to evaluate association of baseline cytokine levels with time to ILD progression and to compare baseline cytokine levels between ILD subtypes. Methods: We quantified 27 cytokines using a multiplex assay in peripheral blood samples from 77 patients. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was performed to evaluate cytokine impact on the time to progression in the total cohort and within each ILD type. We evaluated for significant differences in cytokine levels between ILD types using ANOVA, Wilcoxon signed-rank test and Tukey method. Results: Higher IL-13 level was associated with longer time to progression (hazard ratio 0.52 [0.33-0.81], p-value 0.004). FGF-β, GM-CSF, and IL-17 levels differed significantly between fibrotic and inflammatory ILD subgroups. Conclusion: IL-13 may be a useful biomarker predicting ILD stability.
