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: The aim of our study is to explore the expression levels of inflammatory cytokines in patients with cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL), and to assess the correlation between inflammatory cytokines and clinical/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of the patients. Methods: We recruited 54 patients with CADASIL and 28 healthy controls and detected the expression levels of the following inflammatory cytokines in peripheral blood: interferon (IFN)-γ, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, TNF-β, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-17F, and IL-22. We also analyzed the relationship between the expression levels of the inflammatory cytokines and the clinical/MRI features. Results: The expression of most inflammatory cytokines were significantly higher in CADASIL patients than in healthy controls, including IFN-γ (z = -5.335, Conclusions: Our results indicate that diffuse inflammatory pathway activation occurs in CADASIL. The increased expression level of TNF-β was associated with higher CMBs burden and poor clinical scores. Our findings suggest that the inflammatory pathway, particularly the TNF-related inflammatory pathway, may be involved in the disease progression of CADASIL.
