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

Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is an immune-mediated non-infectious disease, and novel and robust biomarkers are needed to improve the diagnosis and prognostic outcomes of AE. Oxidative stress is a ubiquitous cellular process causing damage to various biological molecules. The aim of our study was to understand the clinical implication and mechanism underlying oxidative stress in AE. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis was conducted on the serum of eight patients with AE and seven healthy controls, and oxidative stress was characterized. Experimental autoimmune encephalitis (EAE) models were established in C57BL/6 and SJL mice for investigation of the therapeutic effect and mechanism of anti-oxidative stress N-acetylcysteine (NAC). We provided proteomic landscape in the serum of AE and identified antioxidant ALB, APOE, GPX3, and SOD3 as serum diagnostic markers of AE. The antioxidant markers were lowly expressed both in the serum of AE patients and central nervous system (CNS) of EAE mice. NAC administration improved clinical signs and motor function and alleviated nerve injury of EAE mice as well as lowered oxidative stress (decreased MDA content and ROS accumulation and elevated SOD activity and GSH content). ALB, APOE, GPX3, and SOD3 expressions were elevated by NAC in the CNS of EAE mice. Moreover, NAC reduced tissue-resident CD4
