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

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the Thrombomodulin (TM) levels in patients who suffered hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) of varying severities, and to evaluate the predictive properties of TM for the seriousness of HFRS, thereby providing a clue for the monitoring and management of this patients in the future. Methods: Chemiluminescence was used to determine the concentrations of TM in 196 patients with HFRS and 49 healthy controls. Conventional testing techniques were used to test the basic clinical reference values for leukocytes, platelets (PLT), C-reactive protein (CRP), creatine (Cr), uric acid (UA), and urea, and the values for activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time, and fibrinogen. The colloidal gold method was used to measure HFRS antibody levels in the patients. The correlation of TM with conventional parameters was assessed using Spearman correlation analysis, and ordinal logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the severity risk factors. The predictive potency of TM for HFRS patients' severity was evaluated by receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve analysis. Results: The concentrations of TM increased with disease severity and peaked in the critical type patients. In addition, plasma levels of TM were proportionally correlated with the levels of leukocytes ( Conclusions: TM levels are associated with HFRS severity, suggesting that TM detection might be beneficial for monitoring the status and effective management of HFRS patients.
