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

The diagnosis and therapy of systemic sclerosis (SSc) is demanding due to its nature as a multisystem disease and its chronic, severe course. To date, there are no generally accepted recommendations for diagnostic work-up either for the time of initial disease diagnosis or for the regular follow-up clinical examinations and diagnostic procedures required. However, due to recent advances, e.g. in the therapy of pulmonary arterial hypertension, regular examinations may contribute to early recognition and treatment of developing organ involvement. This manuscript describes the recommendations for initial and follow-up organ-specific clinical examinations and diagnostic work-up as compiled and carried out by the German Network for Systemic Scleroderma [Deutsche Netzwerk für systemische Sklerodermie (DNSS)].
