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

This study aimed to elucidate the immune status of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients with infections. We enrolled 253 SLE patients including 77 patients with infections. Clinical features and immunological parameters were analyzed, with particular reference to neutrophil CD64 (nCD64) expression, myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), activated T cells and multiple cytokines. Among the 77 SLE patients with infections, 32 patients (41.56%) developed fever and 20 patients (25.97%) developed serositis, which were higher compared to the non-infection group. A considerably higher level of nCD64 was found in the infection group (4.65 vs 1.01, P < 0.001). In addition, the infection group exhibited higher percentages of total MDSCs (6.99 vs 4.30%, P = 0.003), polymorphonuclear MDSCs (PMN-MDSCs) (P = 0.032) and monocytic MDSCs (M-MDSCs) (P = 0.015). T cells were more activated during infections, with an elevated level of IL-2R (P < 0.001). Specifically, higher percentages of CD4
