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.

Abstract

objectiveSusac syndrome (SS) is a rare CD8

methodsSerum from four cases with definite or probable SS and eight healthy controls was analyzed using data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry. Analyses were restricted to proteins with established endothelial cell surface or membrane association, and differential abundance was assessed using detection-based (Fisher's exact) and quantitative (probabilistic dropout analysis) modeling.

resultsSix endothelial-associated proteins demonstrated differential abundance in SS (p < 0.05 on unadjusted analysis). Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 was increased (log

conclusionsOur findings suggest circulating proteins on the endothelial cell surface or membrane as potential biomarkers for SS and support endothelial dysfunction as a central disease mechanism. This pilot study provides a rationale for validation in larger, longitudinal cohorts.
