Anti-Inflammatory Cytokine Profiles in Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura-Differences Compared to COVID-19.
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 8 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
Thromboinflammation/immunothrombosis plays a role in several diseases including thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) and COVID-19. Unlike the extensive research that has been conducted on COVID-19 cytokine storms, the baseline and acute phase cytokine profiles of TTP are poorly characterized. Moreover, we compared the cytokine profiles of TTP and COVID-19 to identify the disease-specific/general characteristics of thromboinflammation/immunothrombosis. Plasma concentrations of 33 soluble mediators (SMs: cytokines, chemokines, soluble receptors, and growth factors) were measured by multiplex bead-based LEGENDplex™ immunoassay from 32 COVID-19 patients (32 non-vaccinated patients in three severity groups), 32 TTP patients (remission/acute phase pairs of 16 patients), and 15 control samples. Mainly, the levels of innate immunity-related SMs changed in both diseases. In TTP, ten SMs decreased in both remission and acute phases compared to the control, one decreased, and two increased only in the acute phase compared to remission, indicating mostly anti-inflammatory changes. In COVID-19, ten pro-inflammatory SMs increased, whereas one decreased with increasing severity compared to the control. In severe COVID-19, sixteen SMs exceeded acute TTP levels, with only one higher in TTP. PCA identified CXCL10, IL-1RA, and VEGF as the main discriminators among their cytokine profiles. The innate immune response is altered in both diseases. The cytokine profile of TTP suggests a distinct pathomechanism from COVID-19 and supports referring to TTP as thromboinflammatory rather than immunothrombotic, emphasizing thrombosis over inflammation as the driving force of the acute phase.
