[Myositides: What is the current situation?].
Review in Zeitschrift fur Rheumatologie, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
This article gives a review of the classification, diagnostic procedures and treatment of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies from a neurological point of view. The myositis syndromes can be subdivided into four groups, polymyositis (PM), dermatomyositis (DM), inclusion body myositis (IBM) and necrotizing myopathy (NM), which substantially differ clinically and pathophysiologically. Myositis may also occur in association with cancer or autoimmune systemic diseases (overlap syndrome). Diagnosis of inflammatory myopathies is based on clinical symptoms, determination of creatine phosphokinase and acute phase parameters in blood (e.g. C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate), electromyography results and findings of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in muscle. A muscle biopsy is mandatory to confirm the diagnosis. High quality randomized controlled trials of treatment regimens for inflammatory myopathies are sparse; however, empirical experience indicates a clear effectiveness of immunosuppressive treatment of PM, DM and NM.
