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

purposeLR11 (also called SorLA or SORL1) is a migration regulator of adherent cells with the immature proliferative phenotype. The present study investigated the clinical and pathological involvement of the soluble form of LR11 (sLR11) in the idiopathic epiretinal membrane (iERM).

methodsThe subjects were 51 patients with iERM (24 cellophane macular reflex (CMR) and 27 preretinal macular fibrosis (PMF)) and 45 patients with macular holes as age and sex-matched controls. Vitreous sLR11 and transforming growth factor (TGF)β2 levels were measured by ELISA.

resultsThe sLR11 levels in the vitreous fluids of patients with iERM (20.2 ± 8.1 ng/mL) were significantly higher than those in controls (11.4 ± 4.7 ng/mL). Among the patients with iERM, the vitreous sLR11 levels were significantly higher in PMF (23.6 ± 8.2 ng/mL), than those in CMR (16.5 ± 5.9 ng/mL). Multivariate regression analysis of the studied factors showed that sLR11 was a unique factor independently contributing to the discrimination of the iERM patients against the control subjects (odds ratio [OR] 1.35 per 1-ng/mL increase, 95% CI 1.09-1.67; P = 0.004). ROC analysis showed that the sensitivity and the specificity of sLR11, but not of other studied factors, categorized into the rank of moderate accuracy. Finally, there was a positive correlation (R = 0.588; P = 0.003) between the vitreous levels of sLR11 and TGFβ2 using the available samples.

conclusionssLR11 levels in vitreous fluids were specifically increased in patients with iERM, suggesting the involvement in the pathology of proliferative and migrating cells for the development of iERM.
