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

(1) Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a chronic pain disorder with a multifactorial pathogenesis involving neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and immune dysfunction. This study aimed to evaluate serum biomarkers related to purinergic signaling, inflammasome activation, pyroptosis, and oxidative stress in patients with FMS. (2) Methods: A total of 93 patients with FMS and 93 age- and sex-matched healthy controls were enrolled. Serum levels of pannexin-1 (PANX1), purinergic receptor P2X7 (P2RX7), NLRP3, caspase-1 (CASP1), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-18 (IL-18), gasdermin D (GSDMD), and gasdermin E (GSDME) were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). (3) Results: Total antioxidant status (TAS) and total oxidant status (TOS) were determined. Patients with FMS exhibited significantly increased serum CASP1, GSDME, PANX1, P2RX7, and total oxidative stress (TOS) levels, whereas GSDMD, NLRP3, IL-18, and TAS levels were significantly decreased compared with controls (all
