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

backgroundTriggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM1) is a cell-surface receptor expressed on neutrophils that amplifies the inflammatory response. Dengue virus (DENV) infection is characterized by systemic inflammation, endothelial activation, and vascular leakage. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL

findingsWe investigated circulating soluble TREM-1 (sTREM-1) levels in 244 children and young adults aged 1-26 years with dengue fever presenting to an outpatient clinic in the Philippines. Elevated sTREM-1 (≥130 pg/mL) was associated with hemoconcentration, a hallmark of vascular leakage (odds ratio (OR) 3.8, 95%CI 1.6-10, p = 0.0020). In turn, hemoconcentration was associated with hospitalization (OR 4.2, 95%CI 1.0-38, p = 0.0497) and higher volume of intravenous fluid required for resuscitation (p = 0.019). Elevated inflammation marker TNF (≥5 pg/mL) was associated with increased sTREM-1 levels (p = 0.0014). Endothelial activation markers angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2), soluble FMS-like tyrosine kinase-1 (sFlt-1), and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM-1) were correlated with sTREM-1 levels (p < 0.0001 for all three comparisons). CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Our findings suggest that sTREM-1 may be a clinically informative marker of neutrophil activation, associated with hemoconcentration, systemic inflammation, and endothelial activation and in dengue fever.
