Elevated Plasma Complement C1Q Measured Subacutely after Traumatic Brain Injury Is Associated with Poor Functional Outcome Independent of Initial Injury Severity.
Article in Neurotrauma reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Following traumatic brain injury (TBI), secondary processes, including inflammation, contribute significantly to long-term cognitive and functional impairments. Targeting these secondary processes during the subacute period after TBI represents a feasible therapeutic target. This study investigates the role of complement factor 1q (C1Q) in TBI recovery. Motivated by our rodent studies showing that thalamic inflammation post-TBI is dependent on C1Q and that blocking C1Q during the subacute period can prevent thalamic inflammation and improve aspects of TBI outcome, particularly sleep, we measured plasma C1Q levels 3-6 months post-injury in 27 patients with TBI ranging from complicated mild to severe, as well as 30 controls. TBI patients had significantly higher plasma C1Q levels (
