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

Developing cost-effective, noninvasive biomarker-based tests could transform moyamoya disease (MMD) management. This study aimed to identify clinically relevant cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers through comprehensive proteomic screening in a large MMD cohort. CSF protein profiles from 104 MMD patients and 14 non-tumorous hydrocephalus patients were analyzed via liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Enrichment analysis was conducted on canonical pathways and differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). The protein-protein interaction network data included all proteins involved in canonical pathways. Potential markers were validated via ELISA. Weighted gene coexpression network analysis (WGCNA) revealed clinical factor-related modules. We identified 2463 proteins, and 2307 were quantified in at least one sample. A total of 321 significant DEPs were identified, with 8 proteins upregulated and 11 proteins downregulated in MMD samples. ELISA confirmed the increased expression of ALB and SLITRK1. WGCNA revealed seven modules correlated with clinical factors, linking preoperative cerebral infarction to the module eigengene (ME) red module and favorable modified Rankin scale scores to the MEblack module. BASP1 and LDHA were significantly upregulated in MEred, whereas CD9 and EMILIN1 were upregulated in MEblack. Our findings shed light on the proteomics of CSF from MMD patients, identifying potential novel biomarkers such as SLITRK1 and markers of preoperative cerebral infarction (BASP1, LDHA) and clinical outcome (CD9, EMILIN1). These markers have potential as new diagnostic and therapeutic targets for MMD.
