Multidisciplinary care in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: a randomized controlled trial in China.
Trial report in International journal of clinical pharmacy, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 For the large number of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients in China, it is critical to carry out effective disease management to improve the treatment effect and reduce disease burden. A pharmacist-led multidisciplinary care model has not been reported in Chinese SLE patients before. Objective To assess the effect of patient-centered, pharmacist-led, multidisciplinary care on clinical outcomes and satisfaction with health care in Chinese SLE patients. Setting: The South Campus, Renji Hospital, School of Medicine, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Shanghai, China. Method Participants were 143 systemic lupus erythematosus patients randomly assigned to either the intervention group (multidisciplinary care: physician, pharmacist and nurse) or the control group (usual care only). Main outcome measures The primary outcome was scores on the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index-2000, the satisfaction with information about medicines scale, and the EuroQol five-dimension questionnaire, assessed at baseline and 12 months. Results Between October 1, 2017 and October 1, 2018, 42 participants were included in the intervention group and 40 in the control group. At 12 months, results for the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index-2000 differed significantly between the intervention group and the control group (0 vs. 2, P = 0.027). Patient satisfaction with health care was also significantly greater in the intervention group than in the control group (92.9 vs. 0%, P = 0.000). According to the EuroQol five-dimension questionnaire, health quality was also improved (0.94 vs. 0.85, P = 0.006). Conclusion Our multidisciplinary care team significantly improved clinical outcomes and satisfaction with drug information in Chinese systemic lupus erythematosus patients.
