In one paragraph

Review in Chest, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05391100 (Screening of Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis for Interstitial Lung Disease With Radiographic and Labor Methods), which is not on this map. Cited by 158 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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.

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.

Abstract

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a frequent extraarticular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). While the nonspecific interstitial pneumonia pattern predominates in most forms of connective tissue-associated ILD, studies in patients with RA-associated ILD (RA-ILD) suggest that the usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern is more common in this patient population. High-resolution CT (HRCT) scans appear accurate in identifying UIP pattern in many patients with RA-ILD. Although the data are limited, UIP pattern appears to predict worse survival in RA-ILD patients. Larger, prospective, multicenter studies are needed to confirm this finding. We propose that the evaluation of patients with RA-ILD should focus on identifying those with UIP pattern on HRCT scans, as these patients are likely to carry a worse prognosis. In patients in whom the underlying pattern cannot be determined by HRCT scanning, surgical lung biopsy should be considered.
