Concerted Actions by PIICP, CTXII, and TNF-α in Patients with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis.
Article in Biomolecules, 2021. 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
Joint destruction in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), initiated in the early, preclinical stage of the disease, is diagnosed on the basis of clinical evaluation and radiographic imaging. The determination of circulating cartilage-matrix turnover markers can facilitate the diagnosis and application of better and earlier treatment strategies for JIA. We have shown that 96 JIA patients have elevated levels of procollagen II C-terminal propeptide (PIICP), reflecting the extent of joint cartilage biosynthesis, and C-telopeptide of type II collagen (CTXII), a biomarker of the resorption of this tissue. Patients who did not respond to treatment had particularly high levels of these markers. JIA treatment resulted in the normalization of these markers in remissive patients, but not in those with active JIA. We showed correlations between examined variables and inflammatory process indicators, i.e., C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). The TNF-α of patients responding to treatment correlated with PIICP, especially in the patients before treatment (r = 0.898,
