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

Rheumatoid arthritis disease is a chronic auto-immune inflammatory disease that mainly causes synovial joint inflammation and cartilage destruction. The tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is a pivotal cytokine that plays an important role in rheumatoid arthritis. The treatments focusing on a single cytokine inhibition are clinically able to produce meaningful responses in only about half of the treated patients due to multiple cytokines involved in this disease. In the present study, a bispecific tandem single-chain variable fragment was designed in order to suppress both human tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-23 (IL23) as a potential therapeutic drug candidate for this disease. To do so, at first, eight bispecific tandem single-chain variable fragment models were built against tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-23 cytokines with different domain orders by the homology modeling, and then 50 ns molecular dynamics simulation was performed for each one and then structural properties were exploited. The MD simulation results indicate the fact that the domains' order strongly affects tandem single-chain variable fragment properties, and in overall, the fragment V
