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

BACKGROUND Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) NF-kappaß-interacting long noncoding RNA (NKILA) is downregulated in various types of cancers, while its involvement in other diseases is unknown. In the present study we found that plasma lncRNA NKILA was expressed at higher levels in active ankylosing spondylitis patients than in healthy controls. MATERIAL AND METHODS According to Youden's index, active disease patients were divided into high and low lncRNA NKILA groups. RESULTS Patients in the high lncRNA NKILA level group had significantly longer length of treatment and higher re-hospitalization rate at 3 years after discharge. Plasma levels of TGF-ß1 were also higher in active ankylosing spondylitis patients than in healthy controls. Levels of plasma lncRNA NKILA and TGF-ß1 were significantly and positively correlated in ankylosing spondylitis patients but not in healthy controls. CONCLUSIONS Overexpression of lncRNA NKILA in ankylosing spondylitis is correlated with active disease and predicts length of treatment. LncRNA NKILA may participate in ankylosing spondylitis through the interaction with TGF-ß1, which is a key player in this disease.
