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

Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCAs) are autoantibodies specific for antigens located in the cytoplasmic granules of neutrophils and lysosomes of monocytes. ANCAs are associated with a spectrum of necrotizing vasculitis that includes granulomatosis with polyangiitis, microscopic polyangiitis, and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. Pulmonary vasculitis and related extravascular inflammation and fibrosis are frequent components of ANCA vasculitis. In this review, we detail the factors that have been associated with the origin of the ANCA autoimmune response and summarize the most relevant clinical observations, in vitro evidence, and animal studies strongly indicating the pathogenic potential of ANCA. In addition, we describe the putative sequence of pathogenic mechanisms driven by ANCA-induced activation of neutrophils that result in small vessel necrotizing vasculitis and extravascular granulomatous necrotizing inflammation.
