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

Iguratimod has been used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and Sjogren's syndrome (SS). Herein, we report two cases of skin allergic reactions caused by iguratimod in our hospital. Case 1 was a woman with SS who developed diffuse pruritus erythema after three weeks of combination therapy of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and iguratimod. When the patient was again prescribed iguratimod after the rash subsided, the pruritus erythema reappeared. Case 2 was a 23-year-old girl treated with prednisone, HCQ, and mycophenolate mofetil for systemic lupus erythematosus and SS. In the follow-up treatment, mycophenolate mofetil was replaced by iguratimod. On the 20th day of treatment, a pruritic erythematous maculopapular rash appeared. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to report the characteristics of an allergic rash caused by iguratimod. It is better to administer HCQ and iguratimod successively rather than simultaneously to a patient.
