Comparative efficacy and safety of JAK inhibitors and leflunomide in rheumatoid arthritis: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundRheumatoid arthritis is the most prevalent systemic autoimmune disease among the rheumatic inflammatory musculoskeletal diseases. Currently, there is no reliable evidence regarding the comparisons of anti-rheumatic effects between leflunomide and Janus kinase inhibitors. We performed a protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the efficacy and safety of Janus kinase inhibitors and leflunomide in rheumatoid arthritis.
methodsThis review has been reported following the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses protocol. We will search 7 electronic databases to identify relevant studies from inception to November, 2022, which includes PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Clinical Trials Database, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database. Risk of bias will be assessed according to the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool. The Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation system will be used to judge the overall quality of evidence supporting outcomes in this work. Data analysis was performed using Reviewer Manager 5.4.
resultsThe results of this systematic review will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.
conclusionThis systematic review will provide evidence to judge whether Janus kinase inhibitors is superior to leflunomide in patients with in rheumatoid arthritis.
