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

backgroundJuvenile systemic sclerosis (jSSc) is a systemic inflammatory and fibrotic autoimmune disease. Adult guidelines recommend obtaining a screening high-resolution computed tomography scan (CT) at diagnosis. As these recommendations are adopted as standard of care for jSSc, increased screening with CT may lead to increased detection of nodules. The implications of nodules identified in jSSc are unclear and unreported.

methodsA retrospective chart review was performed on the prospectively enrolled National Registry for Childhood-Onset Scleroderma (NRCOS) cohort over an enrollment period of 20 years. Clinical associations with presence of nodules and nodule characteristics were investigated.

resultsIn this jSSc cohort, the prevalence of pulmonary nodules was 31% (

conclusionsPulmonary nodules are seen in children with jSSc and may be related to more severe disease and/or esophageal dysfunction. More work is needed to provide guidance on radiologic follow-up and clinical management of pulmonary nodules in jSSc.
