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

Inflammation contributes to the pathogenesis of ischaemic stroke both as a long-term causal factor and through the inflammatory cascade in acute stroke. Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) is a potent pro-inflammatory molecule, while interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) acts as its antagonist. Free fatty acids (FFAs) play a role in atherosclerosis formation and serve as substrates for inflammatory molecules. This study aimed to determine the potential interplay between FFAs, IL-1β, and IL-1Ra in stroke patients. A prospective analysis was conducted on 73 ischaemic stroke patients. All participants had their FFA, IL-1β, and IL-1Ra levels assessed. Significant correlations between IL-1β and certain FFAs were detected: C15:0 pentadecanoic acid (rho = 0.488), C15:1 cis-10 pentadecanoic acid (rho = 0.473), C17:1 cis-10 heptadecanoic acid (rho = 0.411), C18:0 stearic acid (rho = 0.302), C24:0 lignoceric acid (rho = -0.280), C24:1 nervonic acid (rho = -0.276), C18:2n6t linoleic acid (rho = -0.272), C17:0 heptadecanoic acid (rho = 0.241), and C13:0 tridecanoic acid (rho = 0.238). After multivariate analysis C15:0 pentadecanoic acid remained statistically significant. The strongest correlation was found between IL-1Ra and fatty acids: C15:1 cis-10-pentadecanoid acid (rho = -0.357), C18:2n6t linoleic acid (rho 0.341) and C24:1 nervonic acid (rho 0.302), but after multivariate analysis significantly correlated remained: C22:1n9 13 erucic acid (rho = 0.299), C18:3n6 gamma-linoleic acid (rho = 0.277), with close to significant correlation with C22:4n6 docosatetraenoate (rho = -0.241,
