Quiescence and Subsequent Anterior Chamber Inflammation in Adalimumab-treated Pediatric Noninfectious Uveitis.
Article in Korean journal of ophthalmology : KJO, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeTo evaluate the effect of adalimumab in pediatric uveitis and subsequent changes in anterior chamber inflammation following the inactivation of uveitis.
methodsIn this retrospective study, patients with noninfectious uveitis younger than 18 years of age who were treated with adalimumab for more than 12 months were included. The rate of complete suppression and the relapse in anterior chamber inflammation following the initiation of adalimumab therapy were evaluated using anterior chamber cell score and laser flare photometry (LFP) values, if available. Changes in visual acuity and the sparing effect of topical steroid agents were also evaluated.
resultsAmong 22 eyes of 12 pediatric uveitis patients enrolled, 13 eyes were associated with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and nine eyes had idiopathic uveitis. The mean ± standard deviation age was 10.2 ± 3.6 years. Types of uveitis included anterior uveitis (n = 17) and panuveitis (n = 5). Quiescence was observed in 14 eyes (63.6%) at 3 months and in 21 eyes (95.5%) at 12 months after initiation, respectively. After achieving inactive uveitis, uveitis relapsed in two eyes at 6 months, even with adalimumab treatment. In 11 eyes, anterior chamber showed 0.5+ cell scores during the rest of the follow-up period and one of those eyes met the criteria for the relapse based on LFP values. The dosage of topical steroids decreased significantly at 3, 9, and 12 months after the initiation of therapy (
conclusionsIn this study, adalimumab achieved a quiescent state in most eyes with pediatric noninfectious uveitis for 12 months with a relapse rate of 9.5%. LFP values together with the anterior chamber cell score can be utilized to monitor the improvement or relapse in anterior chamber inflammation in pediatric noninfectious uveitis.
