Elevated circulation postsynaptic density protein 95 as a potential biomarker for predicting the diagnosis and prognosis of acute cerebral infarction.
Article in BMC neurology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
purposeIndices for the diagnosis of cerebral infarction (CI) and the prediction of prognosis are essential for timely and appropriate management. Plasma PSD95 levels, as a novel biomarker, have not yet been utilized for the diagnosis and prognosis of cerebral infarction. The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between plasma PSD95 levels and clinical characteristics as well as prognosis in patients with CI.
methodsA total of 105 patients diagnosed with CI and 80 control group (CP) were enrolled. Plasma samples were collected and PSD95 levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Neurological deficits in patients were evaluated using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Statistical analyses were conducted to assess the associations between plasma PSD95 levels, clinical parameters, and prognostic outcomes.
resultsPlasma PSD95 levels were significantly elevated in CI patients compared to CP (p < 0.01). Furthermore, within the CI group, PSD95 levels exhibited a negative correlation with activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) (p < 0.05) and a significant positive correlation with NIHSS scores assessed 6 months post-onset (p < 0.05).
conclusionPlasma PSD95 may serve as a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for cerebral infarction.
