Selected aspects of the current management of myositis.
Review in Therapeutic advances in musculoskeletal disease, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM) are a rare and heterogeneous group of acquired autoimmune muscle disorders, often referred to as 'myositis'. Clinical assessment, together with muscle biopsy findings and autoantibody status are key factors to consider when making a diagnosis of IIM, and in stratification of the 'IIM spectrum' into disease subgroups. Treatment stratified according to serotype (and in the future, likely also genotype) is increasingly being used to take account of the heterogeneity within the IIM spectrum. Subgroup classification is also important in terms of monitoring for complications, such as malignancy and interstitial lung disease. Disease monitoring should include the use of standardized tools such as the IMACS disease activity outcome measures. Other tools such as muscle MRI can be useful in identifying areas of active muscle inflammation. Treatment outcomes in IIM remain unsatisfactory. The evidence base to guide treatment decisions is remarkably limited. In addition to muscle inflammation, a number of noninflammatory cell-mediated mechanisms may contribute to weakness and disability, and for which no specific treatments are currently available.
