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

backgroundTocilizumab has been shown to be effective for treatment of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of interstitial lung disease occurring shortly after tocilizumab infusion in a patient with JIA. CASE PRESENTATION: A 14-year-old female patient with polyarticular JIA developed interstitial lung disease after intravenous and subcutaneous administration of tocilizumab. Her condition improved with glucocorticoid therapy.

conclusionOur results suggest that increased interleukin-6 levels in the blood following tocilizumab treatment may be linked to development of interstitial lung disease.
