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

Anti-interferon (IFN)-γ autoantibodies are linked to varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection. Given the elevated risks of herpes zoster (HZ) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients treated with Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKis), we aimed to examine the relationship between anti-IFN-γ autoantibodies with HZ development in JAKi-treated patients. Serum titers of anti-IFN-γ autoantibodies, plasma levels of IFN-γ, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and IFN-γ-inducible protein-10 (IP-10) were measured by ELISA. Among the 66 enrolled RA patients, 24 developed new-onset HZ. Significantly lower MCP-1 levels were observed in patients with HZ compared to those without (median, 98.21 pg/mL, interquartile range (IQR) 77.63-150.30 pg/mL versus 142.3 pg/mL, IQR 106.7-175.6 pg/mL,
