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

Interstitial lung disease in systemic sclerosis (SSc-ILD) is a frequent organ complication with considerable mortality. Therapeutically, immunosuppressants are primarily used, particularly cyclophosphamide (CYC) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). Recently acquired data also showed an efficacy of the biologics rituximab and tocilizumab. The therapeutic options have most recently been expanded by the approval of the antifibrotic drug nintedanib. It is particularly beneficial in progressive fibrosing courses of ILD despite immunosuppression. The data from controlled trials on the efficacy and safety of CYC and MMF compiled in this review argue for a preferential use of MMF; however, the approval of MMF for this indication is still lacking. This is urgently needed for improved and simplified care of patients with SSc-ILD.
