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

introductionNailfold video capillaroscopy (NVC) is a useful tool for measuring capillary density (CD) and capillary morphology parameters and is mainly used in systemic sclerosis (SSc).

objectiveWe aimed to assess the prevalence of an SSc pattern and CD in different connective tissue diseases (CTDs).

methodsNVC was performed on 268 patients with CTDs. Control groups consisted of 104 healthy volunteers (HVs) and 36 primary Raynaud's patients (PRPs).

resultsDecreased CD was more prevalent in SSc, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), inflammatory myopathies (IIM), and overlap CTD patients compared with both controls. Average CD, the prevalence of decreased CD, and the prevalence of an SSc pattern did not differ significantly between SSc patients with (

conclusionThe presence of another CTD in SSc did not influence CD or morphology. An SSc pattern may also be present in CTDs other than SSc. The MES is a useful instrument to distinguish between patients with CTDs and controls.
