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 define the relationship between serum anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CCP) and disease activity, and to construct a new disease activity index by using anti-CCP in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). One hundred and five RA patients were included. Disease activity based on DAS28-ESR and serum anti-CCP was measured. There was correlation between serum anti-CCP and DAS28-ESR. (R (2) = 0.71, P value < 0.01). New disease activity index was developed by replacing anti-CCP with ESR in DAS28-ESR. There was correlation between new model and DAS28-ESR. (R (2) = 0.91, P value < 0.01) The new composite index best cut-off values corresponding to DAS28-ESR values of 2.6, 3.2, and 5.1 were 3.21, 3.38, and 4.74, respectively. There was agreement between new model and DAS28-ESR for determination of patients in different disease activity categories. (Kappa = 0.71, P value < 0.01). The new disease activity index that applies serum anti-CCP may predict disease activity in RA.
