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 investigated the efficacy of golimumab in the management of refractory non-infectious panuveitis. Nineteen patients (38 eyes; mean age, 31 years) were retrospectively reviewed between June 2016 and June 2022. All patients had bilateral eye involvement and Behçet's disease was the most common diagnosis (57.9%). Compared to the period before golimumab treatment, the rate of uveitis relapses after golimumab treatment significantly decreased from 1.73 to 0.62 events per person-years (incidence ratio 0.33, 95% confidence interval 0.19-0.57, P < 0.001). After golimumab therapy, 12 patients (63.2%) were able to reduce the number or dosage of immunosuppressive drugs, and the median dosage of systemic corticosteroids was reduced from 15.0 to 7.5 mg/d (P = 0.013) compared to baseline. The median logMAR visual acuity improved from 0.9 at baseline to 0.6 at the last visit (P = 0.006). Golimumab demonstrated efficacy against refractory non-infectious panuveitis in terms of a corticosteroid-sparing effect and reduced the rate of uveitis relapses to approximately one-third.
