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

Objective: To report the frequency of selected autoantibodies and their associations with clinical features in Arab children with monogenic lupus. Methods: This study was retrospective single-center study of genetically confirmed monogenic lupus cases at childhood lupus clinic at King Faisal Specialist Hospital and Research Center, from June 1997 to July 2022. We excluded familial lupus without genetic testing and patients with insufficient data. Collected data comprised clinical and laboratory findings, including the autoantibody profile, which included the anti-double-stranded DNA (anti-dsDNA), anti-Smith, anti-Sjögren's-syndrome-related antigen A (anti-SSA), anti-Sjögren's-syndrome-related antigen B (anti-SSB), and antiphospholipid (APL) antibodies. Also, disease activity and accrual disease damage were collected at the last follow-up visit. Results: This study enrolled 27 Arab patients (14 males) with a median age of 11 years (interquartile range 8.0~16 years), with 63% having early-onset disease. The consanguinity rate and family history of lupus were high (74.1% and 55.6%, respectively). The most frequent clinical features were hematological (96.3%), fever (81.5%), mucocutaneous lesions (85.2%), and renal (66.7%). The frequency of the APL antibodies was 59.3%, anti-dsDNA was 55.6%, and anti-Smith and anti-SSA were 48.2% and 44.4%, respectively. Moreover, dsDNA antibodies were significantly associated with musculoskeletal complaints (p<0.05). Likewise, both anti-Smith and anti-SSA antibodies were linked to failure to thrive and recurrent infections in the univariate analysis (p<0.05). Conclusion: Our study reveals autoantibody frequencies and their association with clinical and prognostic in a substantial monogenic lupus cohort. Distinct clinical manifestations and prognosis association with certain autoantibodies support the idea that monogenic lupus is a distinctive form of lupus. Larger studies needed to validate these findings.
