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

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is an immune-mediated, multiorgan, chronic inflammatory disease. The three-step classification criteria proposed in 2019 by the American College of Rheumatology and the European League Against Rheumatism (ACR/EULAR) encompass a wide range of clinical, radiological, serological, and histopathological findings. The ACR/EULAR proposed a three-step classification process, i.e., entry step, exclusion step, and scoring system. Radiologists need to know that the radiological findings observed in the five domains of the lacrimal and salivary glands, chest, pancreas and biliary ducts, kidney, and retroperitoneum are independently weighted with different points in the scoring system. A total score < 20 points indicates that the patient should not be classified as having IgG4-RD; conversely, a total score ≥ 20 points indicates that the patient should be classified as having IgG4-RD. In this review, the 2019 ACR/EULAR classification criteria are discussed, focusing on the interpretation of each radiological item, with the aim of applying them to the diagnosis of IgG4-RD in clinical practice.
