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

Objective: This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of 2 Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors (jakinibs) tofacitinib and ruxolitinib in the treatment of type I interferonopathies patients including STING-associated vasculopathy with onset in infancy (SAVI), Aicardi-Goutières syndrome (AGS), and spondyloenchondrodysplasia with immune dysregulation (SPENCD). Methods: A total of 6 patients were considered in this study: 2 patients with SAVI, 1 patient with AGS1, 1 patient with AGS7, and 2 patients with SPENCD. Clinical manifestations, laboratory investigations, radiology examinations, treatment, and outcomes were collected between November 2017 and November 2021 in Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The disease score for patients with SAVI and AGS scale for patients with AGS were documented. The expression of 6 interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) was assessed by real-time PCR. Results: Three patients (1 patient with SAVI, 2 patients with AGS) were treated with ruxolitinib and 3 patients (1 patient with SAVI, 2 patients with SPENCD) were treated with tofacitinib. The mean duration of the treatment was 2.5 years (1.25-4 years). Upon treatment, cutaneous lesions and febrile attacks subsided in all affected patients. Two patients discontinued the corticoid treatment. Two patients with SAVI showed an improvement in the disease scores ( Conclusion: The JAK inhibitors baricitinib and tofacitinib are promising therapeutic agents for patients with SAVI, AGS, and SPENCD, especially for the improvement of cutaneous lesions and febrile attacks. However, further cohort studies are needed to assess the efficacy and safety.
