Predicting Response to Therapy for Autoimmune and Inflammatory Diseases Using a Folate Receptor-Targeted Near-Infrared Fluorescent Imaging Agent.
Article in Molecular imaging and biology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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
purposeAlthough current therapies for many inflammatory/autoimmune diseases are effective, a significant number of patients still exhibit only partial or negligible responses to therapeutic intervention. Since prolonged use of an inadequate therapy can result in both progressive tissue damage and unnecessary expense, methods to identify nonresponding patients are necessary. PROCEDURES: Four murine models of inflammatory disease (rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, pulmonary fibrosis, and atherosclerosis) were induced, treated with anti-inflammatory agents, and evaluated for inflammatory response. The mice were also injected intraperitoneally with OTL0038, a folate receptor-targeted near-infrared dye that accumulates in activated macrophages at sites of inflammation. Uptake of OTL0038 in inflamed lesions was then correlated with clinical measurements of disease severity.
resultsOTL0038 accumulated at sites of inflammation in all four animal models. More importantly, changes in lesion-associated OTL0038 preceded changes in clinical symptoms in mice treated with all anti-inflammatory drugs examined.
conclusionOTL0038 has the ability to predict responses to multiple therapies in four murine models of inflammation.
