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

Biopharmaceuticals are used widely for the treatment of cancer, chronic viral hepatitis, inflammatory, and autoimmune diseases. Biopharmaceuticals such as interferons are well tolerated for the most part with the most common adverse events observed being 'flu-like' symptoms that resolve rapidly after initial treatment. Prolonged treatment is associated, however, with more serious adverse events including leucopenia, thrombocytopenia, and neuropsychiatric effects, which may necessitate dose reduction or even cessation of treatment in some patients. Recombinant growth factors, such as erythropoietin (EPO), granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, or granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor, are for the most part well tolerated, although severe complications have been reported in patients with cancer or chronic kidney disease treated with EPO. Similarly, treatment of patients with cancer with high doses of interleukin-2 is associated with significant toxicity. Treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and Crohn's disease, with antitumor necrosis factor-alpha monoclonal antibodies is associated with an increased risk of granulomatous infections and, in particular, tuberculosis. The monoclonal antibody, natalizumab, that targets alpha4 integrins is effective in the treatment of multiple sclerosis but is associated with the activation of JC virus and development of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy. Repeated administration of recombinant proteins can cause a break in immune tolerance in some patients resulting in the production of a polyclonal antibody response that can adversely affect pharmacokinetics and clinical response. In addition, neutralizing antibodies that cross react with nonredundant essential proteins such as EPO can cause severe autoimmune reactions.
