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

aimTo evaluate detailed anterior segment parameters of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM), including polymyositis (PM), and dermatomyositis (DM), and to clarify the associations between these data and clinical variables of IIM.

methodsTotally 57 PM, 41 DM patients and 62 controls were enrolled in this cross-sectional, observational, case-control study. All study participants underwent Pentacam evaluation. Laboratory investigations consisted of different antibody assays, while extramuscular clinical assessments included Raynaud's phenomenon, dysphagia, interstitial lung disease, arthritis/arthralgia, and weight loss. Objective signs and subjective symptoms of dry eye disease (DED) were also evaluated.

resultsAll pachymetric parameters [center, apex, thinnest and maximal keratometry (K

conclusionThe results suggest that all IIM patients have thinner corneas compared with those of controls, and decreased corneal parameters are significantly associated with the occurrence of some extramuscular manifestations. In addition, IIM patients tend to develop objective signs of DED.
