Pneumocystosis in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis on adalimumab therapy: a case-based review.
Review in Rheumatology international, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) is a potentially fatal type of pneumonitis, which may have devastating consequences. Typically, it occurs in immunocompromised patients, with the natural history varying depending on the presence or not of HIV infection. Staining and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing in induced sputum or bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is the cornerstone of the diagnosis, while trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is the treatment of choice. The etiological association of biologic agents with the occurrence of PJP is not entirely clear. Adalimumab is a fully human monoclonal anti-TNF-alpha antibody, which has been introduced relatively recently in the treatment of autoimmune inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis. In contrast to other biologic agents, such as Alemtuzumab or Infliximab, there are a small number of reports that support the drug's ability to trigger the occurrence of PJP. Hereby, we present a 53-year-old female patient with a medical history of rheumatoid arthritis on Adalimumab therapy, who developed PJP and we will discuss the main characteristics of PJP and the possible contribution of biologics to the occurrence of the infection.
