Lessons from diseases mimicking Sjögren's syndrome.
Review in Clinical reviews in allergy & immunology, 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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.
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
Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a systemic autoimmune disease that mainly affects the exocrine glands and usually presents as persistent dryness of the mouth and eyes because of functional impairment of the salivary and lacrimal glands. The histological hallmark is a focal lymphocytic infiltration of the exocrine glands, and the spectrum of the disease extends from an organ-specific autoimmune disease (autoimmune exocrinopathy) to a systemic process with diverse extraglandular manifestations. In the absence of an associated systemic autoimmune disease, patients with this condition are classified as having primary SS. The differential diagnosis includes processes that specifically involve the exocrine glands. On the one hand, some chronic viral infections may induce lymphocytic infiltration of the exocrine glands, in some cases indistinguishable from that observed in primary SS. On the other hand, some processes may mimic the clinical picture of SS through nonlymphocytic infiltration of the exocrine glands. This review focuses on these two groups of diseases that mimic SS (infections and infiltrating processes).
