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

Objective of this study is to retrospectively compare the third generation anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide (anti-CCP3) test with the second generation (anti-CCP2) assay as markers of disease activity and predictors of clinical response in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients treated with TNF-alpha blocking agents. This study was performed in 42 RA patients treated either with infliximab (n = 11), etanercept (n = 7) or adalimumab (n = 24). Serum anti-CCP3 and anti-CCP2 levels were tested before and 6 months after starting a TNF-alpha blocking treatment using commercially available ELISA kits. Anti-CCP3 and anti-CCP2 antibody levels did not significantly change after 6 months of TNF-alpha blocking treatment. Furthermore, neither anti-CCP3 nor anti-CCP2 was useful to predict anti-TNF-alpha treatment response using receiving operating characteristic curve and logistic regression analyses. Both anti-CCP3 and anti-CCP2 are not differentially influenced by TNF-alpha blocking agents in RA patients and failed to predict anti-TNF-alpha treatment response.
