Interleukin-15 as a Biomarker Candidate of Rheumatoid Arthritis Development.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
There is a need for definite diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) at its earliest stages of development in order to introduce early and effective treatment. Here we assessed whether serum interleukin-15 (IL-15) can serve as a new biomarker of RA development in patients with undifferentiated arthritis (UA). Interleukin-15, IgM-rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies (anti-CCP Abs) were measured in UA patients at inclusion. Six months later, the diagnosis was re-evaluated, and statistical analysis was performed. We found that at the UA stage, IL-15 was more prevalent in patients who progressed to RA than RF or anti-CCP Abs (83.3% vs. 61.1% and 66.7%, respectively). Interleukin-15 showed higher sensitivity (77.8%) than both autoantibodies and higher specificity (80.9%) than anti-CCP Abs in identification of UA patients who developed RA. The diagnostic utility of IL-15 was comparable to that of RF (AUC: 0.814 vs. 0.750,
