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

introductionThe aim of this study was to investigate the in situ pulmonary endothelial activation in lung lesions of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and systemic sclerosis (SScl).

methodsWe examined the endothelial expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, and E-selectin using immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections of lung lesions of GPA, interstitial lung disease associated with SScl and controls.

resultsA significantly enhanced expression of ICAM-1 and E-selectin was observed in GPA and SScl pulmonary endothelium compared to controls. VCAM-1 was more pronouncedly expressed in GPA compared to SScl.

conclusionThese observations are an evidence of in situ pulmonary vascular endothelial activation in lesions of GPA and SScl, adding information to the pathogenic knowledge of both diseases.
