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

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a complex autoimmune disease with substantial clinical heterogeneity. Current treatments for SLE are effective at reducing morbidity and mortality but fail to provide a cure, and they frequently have adverse effects. Traditional treatments include NSAIDs and antimalarial agents, which are the first-line therapies for mild SLE. In addition, glucocorticoids and cytotoxic or immunosuppressive agents--such as azathioprine, mycophenolate mofetil, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine and methotrexate--are used for SLE with organ involvement. Advances in understanding the immunopathogenesis of SLE have led to the development of targeted immunotherapies, such as the anti-BAFF antibody belimumab, which has been approved as an add-on therapy for patients who have active disease despite receiving standard therapy. This Review presents an overview of the current therapies and nonpharmacological management approaches for SLE, and discusses the best approaches for treating specific disease manifestations such as lupus nephritis, neuropsychiatric lupus and cutaneous lupus erythematosus.
