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

The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a group of muscle diseases with complex immunopathogenesis that varies between disease subgroups, and possibly between patients within the same subgroup. There exists no universal consensus on optimum management, so that no "standard" therapy has been developed. Treatment-refractive IIM remains a clinical challenge. Progress in the development and application of molecular biology techniques and biological therapeutics are evolving into a new scientific frontier in the management of autoimmune diseases. This review offers an update on those components of the humoral and cellular immunity deemed potential targets for biological therapeutics (monoclonal antibodies and fusion proteins) that have been approved by the US FDA for treatment of immunological disorders. A futuristic approach is envisioned in which each individual will receive targeted therapy tailored to patient-specific immune mechanisms. Risk-benefit and cost analyses should determine whether such targeted therapy is appropriate and feasible for refractive and/or newly diagnosed disease.
