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

backgroundPostoperative complications in children with acute suppurative appendicitis (ASA) can lead to very serious consequences. In this study, we investigated the pre- and postoperative expression of miR-29c-3p in ASA and its value in predicting postoperative complications.

methodsRetrospectively, 128 children with ASA and 93 healthy children were included. The qRT-PCR technique was used to detect miR-29c-3p expression in children with ASA preoperatively and 24 h postoperatively. The levels of immune cells (WBC, NEU, LYM) were detected by routine blood test, and the levels of immune proteins CRP and inflammatory factors (TNF-α and IL-6) were detected by ELISA.

resultsBefore surgery, children with ASA had higher levels of miR-29c-3p than healthy controls. But after surgery, miR-29ac-3p levels dropped a lot in children with ASA. The serum levels of immune cells (WBC, NEU, LYM), immune protein CRP and inflammatory factors (TNF-α and IL-6) were significantly decreased in children with ASA. Postoperative miR-29c-3p levels were positively correlated with the levels of immune indicators. The patients with higher miR-29c-3p expression levels showed a greater incidence of postoperative complications.

conclusionsThe expression of miR-29c-3p was positively correlated to immune cells, immune proteins, and inflammatory factors. The expression levels of miR-29c-3p were related to the occurrence of postoperative complications and could, therefore, be utilized to predict the occurrence of postoperative complications in children with ASA.
