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.

Abstract

introductionThe aim of this sub-study was to evaluate injection success of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and their caregivers administering the adalimumab (ADL) biosimilar, PF-06410293 (ADL-PF: adalimumab-afzb; Abrilada

methodsThis sub-study included adult patients with active RA not adequately controlled by methotrexate. Patients received subcutaneous ADL-PF 40 mg by prefilled syringe (PFS) at weeks 52 and 54, then six biweekly doses (weeks 56-66) of ADL-PF 40 mg each via a single-use PFP device. Training was given on first injection at week 56; all injections were given by patients/caregivers. The primary endpoint was delivery system success rate (DSSR): the percentage of participants (i.e., actual PFP user) achieving delivery success for each of the six attempted PFP injections. Injection success was recorded by the observer (Observer Assessment Tool) and participant (Participant Assessment Tool).

resultsIn total, 50 patients with no experience self-injecting with an autoinjector/injection pen were included (74.0% female; mean age at screening, 54.9 years; mean RA duration, 8.0 years). Of these, 49 (98.0%) completed the sub-study and 46 (92.0%) received all six PFP injections. Overall DSSR (n = 294 injections) across visits was 100% (95% CI 92.0-100.0%). Complete injection was confirmed following inspection of 292 used and returned PFPs. A total of 47/49 (95.9%) participants who completed the sub-study elected to continue study treatment using PFP injections, rather than switching back to the PFS.

conclusionsAll actual PFP users could safely and effectively administer ADL-PF by PFP at each visit, and nearly all participants who completed the sub-study elected to continue study treatment using PFP injections.
