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

backgroundThis study will aim to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of digital X-ray radiogrammetry (DXR) on hand bone loss (HBL) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

methodsIn this study, we will search the literature from PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Allied and Complementary Medicine Database, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and WANFANG from the inception to June 1, 2019 without language restrictions. All case-controlled studies on assessing diagnostic accuracy of DXR on HBL for diagnosis of RA will be included. Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies tool will be used for eligible studies. We will apply RevMan V.5.3 software and Stata V.12.0 software for statistical analysis.

resultsWe will evaluate diagnostic accuracy of DXR on HBL in patients with RA by assessing the sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio, and diagnostic odds ratio.

conclusionThis study will detect the diagnostic accuracy of DXR evaluation on HBL in patients with RA. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION: PROSPERO CRD42019139489.
