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

Introduction: S100β is an astrocyte-derived calcium-binding protein with prognostic utility after brain injury. Its temporal profile in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and the influence of peri-procedural factors on serum levels remain incompletely characterized. Research question: (1) Are serial serum S100β concentrations associated with six-month functional outcome after aSAH? (2) Do S100β trajectories differ between surgical clipping and endovascular treatment, compared with an elective unruptured aneurysm cohort as a procedural reference? Methods: This prospective single-center cohort study enrolled 100 adults (50 aSAH; 50 elective unruptured aneurysm treatments). Venous blood was sampled pre-intervention and repeatedly through day 10. S100β was measured using the Elecsys® S100 assay (Roche). Six-month outcome was assessed with the Glasgow Outcome Scale, dichotomized as favorable (4-5) vs. unfavorable (1-3). Nonparametric comparisons and logistic regression evaluated associations between S100β, treatment modality, and outcome. Results: Baseline S100β was higher in aSAH than elective controls (median 0.19 vs. 0.08 μg/L; p < 0.001). Surgical clipping was associated with higher early post-procedural S100β than endovascular treatment through day 2, with no clear difference thereafter. Higher pre- and early post-intervention S100β values were associated with unfavorable six-month outcome. Treatment modality itself was not associated with outcome. Conclusion: Serial S100β elevations during acute aSAH were associated with unfavorable long-term outcome, supporting S100β as a candidate prognostic marker rather than a validated standalone biomarker. Early post-procedural S100β elevations after surgical clipping were transient and may reflect peri-procedural glial activation, baseline severity differences, and other confounding factors. These exploratory findings require confirmation in larger, adequately adjusted multicenter cohorts before clinical prognostic implementation.
