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

backgroundIgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a novel disease named in recent years. Because of its varied clinical manifestations, like tumor but not tumor, it brings a great challenge to clinical diagnosis. Trypsin and T-cell receptor (TCR) are thought to mediate the regulation of B cell maturation, survival and antibody production. In this study, we investigated the clinical features and important novel markers of IgG4-RD. MATERIAL AND

methodsA prospective cohort study of 22 patients with IgG4-RD was carried out from May 2009 to December 2012, and 65 cases with acute pancreatitis, 60 cases with pancreatic cancer and 120 healthy individuals were studied as controls. Serum TCR, trypsin and IgG4 levels were measured during pre- and post-treatment in the patients with IgG4-RD and their correlations with IgG4 were also assessed.

resultsSerum IgG4 and IgE levels in all patients were significantly increased, and tumor markers (carbohydrate antigen 19-9 and/or carbohydrate antigen 125) were also increased (12/22). Serum trypsin in patients with IgG4-RD was lower than in the ones with acute pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, and healthy individuals. But serum TCR of IgG4-RD was significantly higher than in the pancreatic cancer group and normal controls and it was inversely correlated with the levels of IgG4 (r = -3.160, p = 0.042).

conclusionsThe results indicate that serum TCR and trypsin might be useful markers for predicting disease activity in IgG4-RD.
