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

Objective: Analysis of the Expression Significance and Relationship of Serum MicroRNA-542-3p (miR-542-3p) and Long Non-Coding RNA Taurine Upregulated Gene 1 (lncRNA TUG1) in Patients with Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (STBI) and Their Predictive Value for Prognosis. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 193 TBI patients, including 95 STBI (Group A) and 98 non-STBI (Group B) cases. Serum miR-542-3p and lncRNA TUG1 levels were measured upon admission. STBI patients were followed for 6 months and divided into good or poor prognosis groups. Logistic regression, correlation analyses, and ROC curves were used to assess prognostic factors and diagnostic performance. Results: Compared to Group B, Group A patients had significantly lower serum miR-542-3p levels and higher lncRNA TUG1 levels (P < 0.05). A negative correlation was observed between miR-542-3p and lncRNA TUG1 (r = -0.607, P < 0.001). Among STBI patients, 33 (34.74%) had poor prognosis. Brain herniation, brainstem injury, hypoalbuminemia, and high lncRNA TUG1 were identified as independent risk factors, while high miR-542-3p was a protective factor (P < 0.05). Additionally, miR-542-3p levels were negatively correlated with poor prognosis (r = -0.643), while lncRNA TUG1 showed a positive correlation (r = 0.621). ROC analysis showed AUCs of 0.846 for miR-542-3p, 0.823 for lncRNA TUG1, and 0.925 for their combination, indicating improved predictive accuracy with combined detection. Conclusion: miR-542-3p is downregulated and lncRNA TUG1 upregulated in STBI. Both are significantly correlated with prognosis and offer strong predictive value, especially when combined.
