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

To date, there is no published overview of the drug pipeline in granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA), a rare disease. The aim of this study was to identify clinical trials from two study repositories. A review of clinical trials was conducted using publicly available data. Clinicaltrials.gov and International Clinical Trials Registry Platform were searched from inception until 25 September 2022. Only GPA-specific studies were included; these were described in detail. A total of 137 studies were identified in the trial repositories, of which 108 (79%) studies were found to concern GPA. Of these 108 studies, 67 enrolled GPA patients to investigate pharmacotherapy in this disease (62%). Most studies included all severity types (
