[Treatment of lung fibrosis in systemic rheumatic diseases (new treatment)].
Article in Zeitschrift fur Rheumatologie, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
An interstitial lung disease represents a relevant organ manifestation in many systemic rheumatic diseases (connective tissue disease-interstitial lung disease, CTD-ILD). In 10% of the cases pulmonary fibrosis even results in an underlying systemic disease. The CTD-ILDs are frequently associated with a poor prognosis. Therefore, it is important to test patients with systemic rheumatic diseases timely and regularly for the presence of an ILD. Treatment decisions should be made together with pneumologists and rheumatologists, particularly with respect to the initiation of a specific treatment. Treatment is based on randomized studies only in a few cases and can mostly be derived from case control studies. For systemic sclerosis-associated ILD (SSc-ILD) antifibrotic treatment with nintedanib has also now been approved in addition to an immunosuppressive treatment. For other CTD-ILDs an antifibrotic treatment should be discussed in an interdisciplinary approach depending on the underlying disease corresponding to a progressively fibrosing ILD.
