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

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex autoimmune disease characterized by fibrotic, inflammatory, and vascular dysfunction. Danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs)-mediated inflammasome activation has been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of SSc. Cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRP) is newly identified as a DAMP. Here we examined the clinical significance of serum levels of CIRP in 60 patients with SSc and 20 healthy control patients (HCs) using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Serum CIRP levels in diffuse cutaneous SSc (dcSSc) patients were significantly increased compared with limited cutaneous SSc (lcSSc) patients or HCs. When examining the relationship with SSc-specific parameters, serum CIRP levels with the presence of interstitial lung disease (ILD) were higher than those without ILD. In detail, serum CIRP levels correlated negatively with the percent predicted diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide and positively with levels of Krebs von den Lungen-6. In addition, elevated serum CIRP levels declined along with decreased SSc-ILD activity in patients who received immunosuppressive therapy. These results suggest that CIRP may play a role in the development of ILD in SSc. Moreover, CIRP could serve as a useful serological marker of SSc-ILD in terms of disease activity and therapeutic effects.
