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

ANCA-associated vasculitis is an autoimmune condition characterized by vascular inflammation and organ damage. Pharmacologically induced remission of this condition is complicated by relapses. Potential triggers of relapse are immunologic challenges and environmental insults, both of which associate with changes in epigenetic silencing modifications. Altered histone modifications implicated in gene silencing associate with aberrant autoantigen expression. To establish a link between DNA methylation, a model epigenetic gene silencing modification, and autoantigen gene expression and disease status in ANCA-associated vasculitis, we measured gene-specific DNA methylation of the autoantigen genes myeloperoxidase (
