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

backgroundThe coexistence of two myositis-specific autoantibodies (MSA) is considered extremely rare. We describe three patients with both anti-signal recognition particle (SRP) antibodies and another MSA in serum.

methodsWe performed a retrospective clinical data collection and follow-up studies of the clinical manifestations and treatment outcome of three patients positive with anti-SRP antibodies and other MSAs. IgG antibodies against MSAs were detected using commercial line immunoblot assay.

resultsThe tests of MSA showed positive result of anti-SRP antibodies and another one MSA including anti-TIF1-γ, anti-Jo1, or anti-EJ antibodies, respectively. The proximal muscle weakness appeared in 2 patients; interstitial lung disease presented in 2 patients. The serum CK level was elevated in 1 patient. The muscle biopsy showed necrotizing myopathy in 1 patient and deposition of membrane attack complex on scattered myofibers in the other one patient. One of the two patients with interstitial lung disease died because of respiratory failure. One patient had completely improved and the other one showed partial remission after immunosuppressive therapy.

conclusionsThe patients with anti-SRP antibodies co-occurred with the other MSA may have various clinical characteristics. The clinicopathological phenotypes of these patients seem to be mainly caused by one of the MSAs, namely the responsible antibody.
