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

objectivesTo assess the efficacy and safety of jakinibs for the treatment of active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in patients with an inadequate response or intolerance to conventional synthetic or biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).

methodsA systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library. Randomized placebo-controlled trials (RCTs) of jakinibs in RA patients were eligible. The effective outcome was RA improvement to reach an American College of Rheumatology 20%/50%/70% (ACR20/50/70) response rate at weeks 12 and 24 after treatment. The safety outcomes included treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), serious adverse events (SAEs), and discontinuations due to adverse events, infections, and serious infections.

resultsTwenty-eight randomized, double-blind, controlled trials including 14,500 patients were included. At both weeks 12 and 24, the pooled analysis suggested effective treatment with jakinibs, represented as an increased clinical response of ACR20, ACR50, and ACR70. Subgroup analysis based on different types of jakinibs demonstrated that only peficitinib treatment had no impact on the clinical response of ACR50 or ACR70 at week 12. Jakinibs were associated with an increased incidence of infections at week 12 and TEAEs and infections at week 24. No increase in the risk of SAEs, discontinuations due to adverse events, or serious infections was observed in comparisons between treatment with jakinibs and treatment with placebo in these patients.

conclusionsJakinibs are efficacious and well tolerated in RA patients up to 24 weeks, although they are associated with an increased risk of infectious complications. Key Points • ACR20/50/70 in patients treated with jakinibs was significantly higher than those in patients treated with placebo. • No difference in ACR50/70 was observed in patients with RA treated with peficitinib and placebo. • Jakinibs are beneficial and well tolerated in RA treatment.
