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

Ebola virus disease (EVD) survivors often present with clinical sequelae after acute disease resolution, called post-Ebola syndrome (PES). Why some survivors develop these sequelae and others do not is poorly defined. Altered metabolism has been noted in acute EVD but not studied in PES. We identified differential expression of metabolites involved in multiple metabolic pathways in EVD survivors with PES. This included the tricarboxylic acid cycle, amino acid, nucleotide, and short chain fatty acid metabolism. Several of these pathways are associated with immune dysfunction. The identified metabolites have potential use as biomarkers of post-Ebola syndrome.
