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

To determine the relationship between serum adenosine deaminase (ADA) and disease activity, and to develop a new disease activity index based on serum ADA in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Seventy RA patients were included. Disease activity based on Disease Activity Score 28-ESR (DAS28-ESR) and Disease Activity Score 28-CRP (DAS28-CRP) and serum ADA were measured. There were correlations when serum ADA compared with DAS28-ESR and DAS28-CRP. (R (2) = 0.014, 0.175, respectively, P values < 0.00). New disease activity index was developed by replacing ADA with ESR and CRP in DAS28-ESR and DAS28-CRP. There were strong correlations when new model compared with DAS28-ESR and DAS28-CRP. (R (2) = 0.94 and 0.95, respectively, P values < 0.00) The best new model values corresponding to DAS28-ESR values of 2.6, 3.2, and 5.1 were 2.79, 3.4, and 4.82, respectively; and new model values corresponding to DAS28-CRP values of 2.3, 2.7, and 4.1 were 2.1, 2.9, and 4, respectively. There were agreements when the new model compared with DAS28-ESR and DAS28-CRP for determination of patients in different disease activity categories. (Kappa = 0.81 and 0.71, respectively, P values < 0.00). The new disease activity index that applies serum ADA may help in predicting disease activity in RA.
