Identification of novel plasma proteomic biomarkers of Dupuytren disease.
Article in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Dupuytren Disease (DD) is a chronic progressive disease that can cause disabling hand deformities. The most common treatments have either high complication rates or high early recurrence rates. Dupuytren lacks a staging biomarker profile to inform the development of preventive therapeutics to improve long-term outcomes. This multi-omic study aimed to create a DD blood proteomic biomarker profile by comparing DD plasma with that of a healthy control group. We measured circulating collagen metabolism peptides and found normal Collagen I synthesis but impaired Collagen I degradation in DD. We measured 6995 serum protein aptamers and identified 68 proteins that showed statistically significant differences compared with the control group. We developed two Diagnostic Proteomic Risk Scores (DPRS) based on hypothesis-free and hypothesis-based analyses. In independent data, our hypothesis-free and hypothesis-based DPRS distinguished Dupuytren from control subjects with accuracies of 76.5% and 70.6%, respectively. Our hypothesis-based DPRS also distinguished DD subjects with different disease progression rates by age at their first corrective procedure (p = 0.0018). This pilot study is the first to provide evidence to suggest that Collagen I accumulation in DD results from impaired degradation rather than increased collagen synthesis. It also describes novel DPRS that have potential use as diagnostic and staging biomarker panels for Dupuytren disease.
