Characterisation of airway disease associated with Sjögren disease.
Article in RMD open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
objectiveAlthough airway disease associated with Sjögren's disease (Sjo-AD) is common, it is poorly studied compared with interstitial lung disease (ILD). In this study, we aimed to assess factors associated with Sjo-AD, the characteristics and prognosis of this manifestation.
methodsWe performed a retrospective multicentric study involving nine centres. We included Sjo-AD patients confirmed by at least one clinician and one CT scan report. Clinical and biological data, pulmonary function test (PFT), and CT scans were collected. A single radiologist specialist in thoracic diseases reviewed CT scans. Sjo-AD patients were compared with Sjo controls without pulmonary involvement, randomly selected after matching for age and disease duration.
resultsWe included 31 Sjo-AD and 62 Sjo controls without pulmonary history. Sjo-AD had a higher disease activity (ESSDAI) compared with controls, even when excluding the pulmonary domain of the score (7 vs 3.8, p<0.05), mainly due to the biological activity. Sjo-AD was multilobar (72%) and associated with signs of both bronchiectasis and bronchiolitis (60%). Obstructive lung disease occurred in 32% at the time of Sjo-AD diagnosis. Overall, PFT was stable after 8.7±7 years follow-up but repeated CT scans showed extended lesions in 41% of cases within 6±3.2 years. No patient developed Sjo-ILD. Sjo-AD progression was independent of the global disease activity.
conclusionsSjo-AD preferentially affects Sjo patients with higher biological activity. It is often characterised as a diffuse disease, affecting both proximal and distal airways, with a slow evolution over time and no progression to Sjo-ILD.
