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

Sjögren's syndrome is a systemic autoimmune disease with a predominant involvement of exocrine glands leading to sicca symptoms. Extraglandular involvement occurs in about 40% of patients with skin, musculoskeletal, neurological and organ manifestations. Systemic vasculitic manifestations of Sjögren's syndrome can be assumed in approximately 5%-10% of patients. Leukocytoclastic or cryoglobulinemic vasculitis represent classic vasculitic manifestations of Sjögren's syndrome. In the pathogenesis of vasculitis, B-cell-driven autoimmune processes play a major role by producing autoantibodies against the Ro/SS-A and La/SS-B antigens and cryoglobulins. In patients with Sjögren's syndrome, manifestation of vasculitis, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and glomerulonephritis, as well as positive cryoglobulins and decreased levels of complement factors, are considered negative prognostic markers. Various immunosuppressive strategies, usually in co-medication with glucocorticoids, are used for the treatment of vasculitis in Sjögren's syndrome. For refractory and severe manifestations, a B-cell-targeted therapy with Rituximab should be also considered.
