The swollen joint, the thickened artery, and the smoking gun: tobacco exposure, citrullination and rheumatoid arthritis.
Review in Rheumatology international, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Autoimmune diseases result from an interplay between susceptibility genes and environmental factors. These interacting etiopathogenetic components converge in a critical step preceding disease, the loss of tolerance to self. In this review, we examine the evidences linking tobacco smoking with the initiation and perpetuation of inflammation affecting both the synovial membrane and the endothelial lining in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. This disease is a compelling argument for the decisive role of environment in the triggering of a human autoimmune disease in genetically prone individuals.
