Topic: Plasma and spinal-fluid biomarkers
These results are discussed in the light of previously published series and case reports of Whipple disease. A recent report suggests that polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis of peripheral blood might allow the diagnosis of Whipple disease in some cases.

How this study scored 43/100
Published in a peer-reviewed journal. Scored zero for study design, effect reported and randomised / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record and multi-centre collaboration, so those were left out: it earned 25 of the 58 points we could judge it on, which is 43 out of 100.
