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

The presence of arthropathy in patients with acromegaly may suggest recurrence of acromegaly or the existence of an inflammatory joint disease such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Few publications have evaluated the coexistence of RA and acromegaly. Two cases were presented with a coexistence of RA and acromegalic arthopathy, which enabled us to evaluate the key factors in differential diagnoses and the implications for treatment. Diagnosis of RA in patients with acromegaly requires a high level of clinical suspicion, and should therefore be considered in cases where adequate symptom control is not achieved. Delay in the diagnosis and treatment of RA can increase joint damage and possibly worsen a patient's functional prognosis.
