Comparative Proteomic Profiling of Blood Plasma Revealed Marker Proteins Involved in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. 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
Temporal lobe epilepsy has various origins, involving or not involving structural changes in brain tissue. The mechanisms of epileptogenesis are associated with cell regulation and signaling disruptions expressed in varied levels of proteins. The blood plasma proteomic profiling of temporal lobe epilepsy patients (including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-positive and MRI-negative ones) and healthy volunteers using mass spectrometry and label-free quantification revealed a list of differently expressed proteins. Several apolipoproteins (APOA1, APOD, and APOA4), serpin protease inhibitors (SERPINA3, SERPINF1, etc.), complement components (C9, C8, and C1R), and a total of 42 proteins were found to be significantly upregulated in the temporal lobe epilepsy group. A classification analysis of these proteins according to their biological functions, as well as a review of the published sources, disclosed the predominant involvement of the processes mostly affected during epilepsy such as neuroinflammation, intracellular signaling, lipid metabolism, and oxidative stress. The presence of several proteins related to the corresponding compensatory mechanisms has been noted. After further validation, the newly identified temporal lobe epilepsy biomarker candidates may be used as epilepsy diagnostic tools, in addition to other less specific methods such as electroencephalography or MRI.
