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

objectivesTo investigate the correlation between serum angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) levels, white matter hyperintensity (WMH), and cognitive impairment (CI) in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD).

methodsThis cross-sectional study enrolled 171 patients with CSVD who attended the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from December 2021 to July 2022. All subjects underwent a 3.0T head magnetic resonance imaging, neuropsychology assessment, and blood sampling. Serum ANGPTL4 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and the severity of WMH was assessed by the Fazekas scale. According to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scale, subjects were divided into normal cognition group (NC, n = 80) and CI group (n = 91). According to the total Fazekas scores, subjects were divided into a mild WMH group (n = 84), a moderate WMH group (n = 70), and a severe WMH group (n = 17).

resultsSerum ANGPTL4 levels were significantly higher in the CI group than in the NC group (p < .05) and were negatively correlated with mini-mental state examination scores and MoCA scores (r = -0.26, -0.341, p < .05). Serum ANGPTL4 levels increased significantly in the mild to moderate WMH group but tended to decrease in the severe WMH group. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that ANGPTL4 was an independent influencing factor for CSVD-CI (OR = 2.062, 95% CI (1.591-2.674), p < .001). The area under curve of ANGPTL4 for CSVD-CI was 0.847 (0.791-0.903).

conclusionANGPTL4 may be involved in the process of white matter damage and CI in CSVD patients and shows a diagnostic value for CSVD-CI.
