Clinical characteristics of anti-MDA5 antibody-positive interstitial lung disease.
Article in Respirology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis (CADM) with anti-melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 antibody is associated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RP-ILD) which results in up to 50% mortality, especially within six months of diagnosis. However, limited data are available on this disease. This is the first case series of six patients in Thailand diagnosed with CADM with ILD. All patients presented with respiratory symptoms, such as progressive dyspnoea, dyspnoea on exertion, or cough. High-resolution computed tomography of the chest showed predominantly subpleural and peripheral consolidation in both lower lungs. Four patients had RP-ILD and three of the RP-ILD patients died within seven weeks of diagnosis. These cases illustrate the clinical characteristics, chest imaging, treatments, and clinical outcomes of the patients diagnosed with CADM and ILD.
