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

Clinically amyopathic dermatomyositis usually presents with severe skin rashes but no muscle involvement and is associated with the highly lethal form of rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease. Diagnosis of myositis-related acute interstitial pneumonia can be particularly challenging, as the clinical presentation of hypoxia and respiratory failure has a broad differential diagnosis. This is especially true when the characteristic skin or muscle finding are absent and the patient has no history of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies. We present a rare case of a patient who presented with rapidly worsening acute respiratory failure from acute interstitial pneumonia due to an undiagnosed amyopathic dermatomyositis with positive anti-MDA5 autoantibody without any of the typical myositis symptoms or physical exam findings.
