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

Background: Serum concentration of soluble growth stimulation expressed gene 2 (sST2) appears to have prognostic value in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) by now. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sST2 concentration and outcome in patients with aSAH. Methods: A total of 65 aSAH patients who met the inclusion criteria in the Neurosurgery Department of Jining No.1 People's Hospital from March 2021 to August 2022 were selected as the research objects. 35 patients with the third month Modified-Rankin-Scale (mRS) score of 0-2 were divided into good prognosis group, and 30 patients with the third month mRS score of 3-5 were divided into poor prognosis group. CSF was collected by lumbar puncture for the first 5 days after aneurysm surgery. CSF sST2 concentration was determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: In all patients, CSF sST2 concentrations initially increased, peaked on day 2, and then decreased. Compared with the good prognosis group, the sST2 concentration was significantly increased in the poor prognosis group at 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 days after aSAH surgery. CSF sST2 concentration exhibited good diagnostic performance for predicting outcome (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve = 0.988). Additionally, CSF sST2 concentration has good performance for predicting cerebral edema, but only in the poor prognosis group (area under the curve = 0.93). Conclusions: Elevated CSF sST2 concentration is associated with poor outcome in aSAH patients. CSF sST2 may have a role as a predictive biomarker in these patients.
