Anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ASCA) and anti-endomysial antibodies in spondyloarthritis.
Article in Rheumatology international, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Spondyloarthritis (SpA) are diseases with increased gut inflammation. To search for (anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae) ASCA IgA, ASCA IgG, and anti-endomysial antibodies (EmA-IgA) in a cohort of 70 patients with SpA, we found 18.6% (13/70) positive for IgA-ASCA in the SpA group and 3/57 (5.2%) in the control group (P = 0.031). ASCA IgG and EmA-IgA were found at the same frequency in SpA and controls. No relationship of ASCA IgA positivity could be established with disease activity (measured by ESR, C-reactive protein, and BASDAI), presence of uveitis, or peripheral arthritis neither with functional status measured by BASFI. SpA patients present an increase in the IgA-ASCA positivity without any relationship to disease activity, functional index, clinical profile or the presence of HLA-B27. There is no evidence of higher prevalence of EmA-IgA in SpA patients in the studied sample.
