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

Rheumatoidarthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by uncontrolled joint inflammation and damage to bone and cartilage. B cells are known to play a crucial role in the pathogenesis and development of arthritis. Previous studies have found that B cells may be a potential target for treating RA. Rituximab, a monoclonal antibody targeting B cells, has induced long-term clinical responses in RA. Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mouse model is a widely studied autoimmune model of RA. CIA mouse model was used to investigate the effect of rituximab on the RA severity in the mice. Following induction of CIA, animals were treated with rituximab (250 mg/kg/week) intraperitoneally on the days 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, and 63 after collagen induction. We investigated the effect of rituximab on NF-κB p65, IκBα, GM-CSF, MCP-1, iNOS, TNF-α, and IL-6 cells in splenic CD19
