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

Purpose: We aimed to investigate the association between circulating growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF15) levels and retinal artery occlusion (RAO), and to assess the diagnostic performance of GDF15 for discriminating RAO patients from controls. Materials and methods: In this cross-sectional study, we quantified serum GDF15 levels using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). After performing propensity score matching with age and sex adjustment, we conducted univariate and multivariate analyses to describe RAO risk factors. Subsequently, multivariable logistic regression combined with restricted cubic spline analysis was performed to assess the significance of GDF15 in RAO risk evaluation. Results: The results showed that GDF15 levels in patient was significantly increased in serum (median: 587.89 pg./mL vs. 331.54 pg./mL, Conclusion: Our findings indicate that elevated GDF15 levels are significantly associated with the incidence of RAO. GDF15 exhibited acceptable diagnostic accuracy as a single marker, and the inclusion of GDF15 in a multiparameter diagnostic model significantly improved discrimination, highlighting its potential as a biomarker for RAO.
