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

Although most patients with acute pericarditis will recover, a minority will have recurrent, debilitating episodes. In these patients, refractory symptoms result in high morbidity, and typically require a prolonged duration of anti-inflammatory treatment. Initially, the efficacy of colchicine in both recurrent pericarditis and periodic fever syndromes suggested the central role of the inflammasome in pericarditis. Subsequently, the success of interleukin-1 antagonists in autoinflammatory diseases prompted further investigation in recurrent pericarditis. In current clinical practice, interleukin-1 antagonists include canakinumab, anakinra, and rilonacept. Both anakinra and rilonacept have demonstrated efficacy in randomized trials of patients with recurrent pericarditis. The aim of the current review is to explain the biological rationale for interleukin-1 antagonists in recurrent pericarditis, highlight supporting clinical evidence, and emphasizing future areas of investigation.
