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

Currently, it is well recognized that in the natural history of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), an at-risk phase, characterized by the development of autoimmunity, precedes the onset of clinical symptoms in a large proportion of patients. For individuals who later develop seropositive RA, this manifests as autoantibodies directed against proteins that have undergone specific post-translational modifications (PTM). These anti-PTM autoantibodies (APMA) are an important biomarker and risk factor for future RA. However, the triggers of autoimmunity remain unknown. This review summarizes data supporting the view that the transition from the at-risk stage to clinical RA is governed by a link between autoimmunity, inflammation, and dysbiosis. In particular, dysbiosis was shown to enhance the generation of PMT-peptides, create an antigenic mimicry with self-antigens, and establish the pro-inflammatory immune profile, all of which lead to the initiation of APMA production. Moreover, we present data supporting a major role of the autoimmunity-inflammation-dysbiosis axis in the development of bone damage and atherosclerosis-associated cardiovascular morbidity in at-risk RA individuals, and we describe potential mechanisms underlying these events. We believe that clarification of the mechanisms triggering the transition from a preclinical to clinical RA stage will pay the way to new prophylactic interventions that will prevent development of classified RA.
