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

Aim: To explore and compare the efficacy of standard (300 mg every 2 weeks) and extended (300 mg every 4 weeks) dosing regimens of lanadelumab for long-term prophylaxis of hereditary angioedema (HAE). Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of all patients with HAE on lanadelumab, which identified a total of 9 patients: 5 females and 4 males. The median age of patients was 31 years (IQR 20.7). The mean number of attacks per month before starting lanadelumab was 5.9 (SD 6.3). Patients were started on 300 mg of lanadelumab subcutaneously, every 2 weeks (standard group, n = 5) or every 4 weeks (extended group, n = 4). Results: We observed a statistically significant improvement in the number of angioedema attacks per month in all 9 patients ( Conclusion: Lanadelumab is a safe and effective agent for long-term prophylaxis of HAE. An extended dosing regimen was equally effective as prophylaxis compared to a standard regimen. Further studies are needed to compare the 2 regimens in a larger patient group.
