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

Sixty-six hospitalized patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were enrolled into this study. The test for anti-mitochondrial antibodies (AMAs) was performed and biochemical parameters were determined. AMAs were detected in 15 of the 66 patients with SLE. Meanwhile, we compared enzymatic levels in AMA-positive and -negative patients and found that serum aminotransferase levels were significantly higher in AMA-positive patients than in AMA-negative individuals. Furthermore, we found a positive correlation between serum AMA titration and serum aminotransferase levels. This study suggests that AMAs might contribute to the elevation of aminotransferases. Although much remains to be learned about the pathogenesis of autoimmune liver disease associated with AMAs, this report might provide greater insight into the metabolic mechanisms of AMAs in AMA-positive patients.
