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

Etanercept (Enbrel), a recombinant, dimeric, soluble tumour necrosis factor (TNF) receptor protein, is approved in various countries for the treatment of adult patients with ankylosing spondylitis or psoriatic arthritis. Monotherapy with subcutaneous etanercept 25mg twice weekly or 50mg once weekly was effective and generally well tolerated in patients with ankylosing spondylitis or psoriatic arthritis participating in several large, well designed clinical studies. Treatment with etanercept was more effective than placebo in reducing disease activity and improving health-related quality of life (HR-QOL) in both patient populations, and in delaying structural disease progression in patients with psoriatic arthritis. The beneficial response to etanercept achieved with shorter-term treatment was sustained in studies of up to 4 years' total duration. Randomised, well designed, head-to-head comparisons, including pharmacoeconomic analyses, with other anti-TNF biological modulators are required to accurately position etanercept and fully establish its cost effectiveness. In the meantime, etanercept is a valuable treatment option for patients with ankylosing spondylitis or psoriatic arthritis who are suitable candidates for therapy.
