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

Infections caused by dengue virus (DENV) result in significant morbidity and mortality. A proportion of infected individuals develop dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF) characterized by circulatory collapse and multiorgan failure. Early detection of individuals likely to develop DHF could lead to improved outcomes for patients and help us use healthcare resources more efficiently. We identified proteins that are differentially regulated during early disease in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients who subsequently developed DHF. Four dengue fever (DF), four DHF and two healthy control PBMCs were subjected to tandem mass tag mass spectrometry. Differentially regulated proteins were used to identify up- or down-regulated Gene Ontology pathways. One hundred and sixty proteins were differentially expressed in DENV-infected samples compared to healthy controls. PBMCs from DHF patients differentially expressed 90 proteins compared to DF; these were involved in down-regulation of platelet activation and aggregation, cell adhesion, and cytoskeleton arrangement pathways. Proteins involved in oxidative stress and p38 MAPK signalling were upregulated in DHF samples during early infection compared to DF. This study has identified 90 proteins differentially regulated in PBMCs that could potentially serve as biomarkers to identify patients at risk of developing DHF at an early disease stage.
