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

Up to now stratified therapy concepts have not played an important role in the treatment of patients with rheumatoid arthritis; however, a high heterogeneity regarding the effectiveness of therapies and occurrence of side effects in patients with the same indications provokes research efforts aiming at identifying and developing diagnostic biomarkers. Comprehensive diagnostics could lead to improved patient-oriented therapy algorithms and hence, a higher patient-relevant benefit could be achieved. Furthermore, costs for non-effective therapy options could be reduced, which might improve the cost-effectiveness of single active agents, especially biologicals. For the pharmaceutical industry an enhanced stratification of pharmaceuticals leads to smaller patient target groups and smaller markets on the one hand but on the other hand it may result in higher chances of receiving approval as well as higher reimbursement prices.
