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

Vasculitis can occur as a primary disease or as a secondary manifestation of either another illness or a type-III hypersensitivity response to a foreign antigen. Over the past four decades, a number of animal models of vasculitis have been described. These models have served as important tools for enhancing our understanding of the basic mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of vasculitis. In addition, animal models have made possible the preclinical testing of new therapeutic agents. Animal models of vasculitis can be broadly classified into two types--those that are experimentally induced and those that occur spontaneously. Vasculitis can be experimentally induced in animals through the stimulation of a type-III hypersensitivity response to a variety of foreign antigens, by viral or bacterial infection of vascular cells and the immune response to that infection, or by the in-vivo administration of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, estrogen, or mercuric chloride (HgCl(2)). Systemic vasculitis spontaneously develops in several strains of mice and rats. This paper reviews the current state of knowledge of several animal models of vasculitis and the lessons that have been learned from them.
