Mycophenolate for the Treatment of Primary Sjögren's Syndrome.
Review in Journal of translational internal medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a systemic autoimmune disease with exocrine gland dysfunction and multi-organ involvement. Currently, there is an increasing trend toward non-steroid therapy for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. Some biological agents or immunosuppressive drugs may be the ideal choices. In real-world practice, as patients have severe systemic complications or organ damage, they will have a bad prognosis even if they are treated with high-dose steroids and strong immunosuppressive drugs. However, if we can start early intervention and prevent progressive development in advance, the patient may have a good prognosis. Mycophenolate is an immunosuppressive drug with minor side effects. Here, we conduct a systemic review and find supporting evidence that patients with pSS benefit from early mycophenolate therapy. Mycophenolate may be the first-line treatment for pSS patients in the future.
