The clinical significance of inflammatory biomarkers, IL6 cytokine, and systemic immune inflammatory index in rabbit model of acute and chronic Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis-induced osteomyelitis.
Article in PloS one, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Infections are a major complication of open fractures and fracture fixation. In this study, an innovative bioactive medical device was used to experimentally treat MRSE-induced osteomyelitis in rabbit tibia. This paper investigates the clinical significance of inflammatory biomarkers (NLR, PLR, MLR and PMR), SII and IL-6 and assesses their role in the development of osteomyelitis. The main objective is to identify the utility of hematological reports derived from neutrophils, leukocytes, monocytes and platelets in the evolution of implant-related osteomyelitis and the estimation of treatment efficiency. In particular, this study compares the response of these inflammatory markers to different treatments in the presence or absence of bioactive materials and/or topical antibiotics over time. The analysis of the threads showed that NLR, PLR and SII had high values in the acute phase of the disease, so that after chronicization, they decrease. The animals treated with vancomycin nano-functionalized peptide-enriched silk fibroin-coated implants showed lower levels of inflammatory biomarkers compared to the other groups (empty implants and peptide-enriched silk fibroin-coated implants). NLR, PLR and SII, complemented by IL-6 can be used as fairly accurate biomarkers for the diagnosis of osteomyelitis.
