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

Tumour necrosis factor α (TNF-α) inhibitors are frequently used for the treatment of immune-mediated diseases. Conversely, cytokine therapy has the potential to paradoxically induce autoimmunity. A number of case reports have emerged concerning sarcoid-like granulomatosis secondary to TNF-α therapy, an adverse effect that typically affects the pulmonary and cutaneous systems. Granulomatous interstitial nephritis (GIN) is a relatively unknown, relatively under-reported consequence of adalimumab therapy that can have important clinical implications. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of GIN secondary to anti-TNF-α therapy necessitating a prolonged period of dialysis and the first report demonstrating the successful use of secukinumab as an alternative immunomodulatory agent.
