A new laboratory surrogate (Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-1) for Disease Activity Score28: a favourable indicator for remission in rheumatoid arthritis.
Article in Scientific reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
This prospective one-year follow-up study was conducted from 835 visits in 178 rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Tender-/swollen-joint count, Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI), Disease Activity Score 28-ESR (DAS28-ESR), DAS28-CRP, Simplified Disease Activity Index (SDAI) and DAS28-monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (DAS28-MCP-1) scores were obtained every 3 months. Radiographs of hands and feet were acquired at baseline and one year. We evaluated the correlation and accuracy of activity scores in predicting remission, HAQ-DI changes and radiographic changes. DAS28-MCP-1 correlated strongly with DAS28-ESR, DAS28-CRP and SDAI scores (0.830, 0.899 and 0.931, respectively, with all P < 0.001). Score changes of DAS28-MCP-1 were comparable to those of DAS28-ESR, DAS28-CRP and SDAI in predicting changes in HAQ-DI and bone erosion. DAS28-MCP-1 (<2.2) was better than DAS28-ESR (<2.6) in indicating modified American Rheumatism Association remission and 2011 American College of Rheumatology/European League Against Rheumatism remission (75.61% vs. 36.99% and 81.71% vs. 49.13%, respectively) with odds ratios of 5.28 and 4.62 (both P < 0.001), respectively. We compared DAS28-MCP-1 with SDAI (≦3.3) in indicating remission with odds ratios of 2.63 (P = 0.002) and 0.98, respectively (and DAS28-MCP-1 with DAS28-CRP < 2.5: 1.33 and 0.92). Therefore, DAS28-MCP-1 is useful as an alternative in assessing RA activity.
