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

backgroundAnti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) antibody (Ab)-positive clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis (CADM) with pneumomediastinum (PNM) is a life-threatening condition. We aim to determine the prognostic factors affecting survival of patients with anti-MDA5 Ab-positive CADM complicated with PNM.

methodsWe retrospectively established a cohort of patients with anti-MDA5 Ab-positive CADM complicated with PNM from April 2013 to July 2019. Demographic data and clinical characteristics from medical records were analyzed and variables were compared between survivors and nonsurvivors. We performed univariate and multivariate survival analyses by Cox regression. Survival curves were depicted by the Kaplan-Meier method.

resultsAmong 133 patients with anti-MDA5 Ab-positive CADM, 20 were diagnosed with PNM. The cumulative estimated Kaplan-Meier survival rate was 85% at 1 week, 55% at 1 month, and 40% at 1 year. Univariate analysis indicated several factors associated with survival. Worse liver function (AST, p = 0.043; LDH, p = 0.002; TBIL, p = 0.038), higher CRP level (p = 0.044), higher HRCT score (p = 0.022), and using noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) (p < 0.01) were associated with poor prognosis. In a multivariate Cox regression model, AST level and using NPPV were indicated to be independent predictors of poor prognosis.

conclusionIn this research, we found that the incidence rate of PNM in anti-MDA5 Ab-positive CADM was 15.5%, obviously higher than in classical DM. The application of noninvasive positive pressure ventilator (NPPV) and higher AST level were independent risk factors for survival.Key Points• Anti-MDA5 Ab-positive CADM complicated with PNM is a life-threatening condition with an incidence rate of 15.5%.• The application of NPPV and worse liver function were independent risk factors for survival of anti-MDA5 Ab-positive CADM patients complicated with PNM.
