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

Nintedanib has been demonstrated to inhibit the rate of forced vital capacity decline in patients with progressive fibrosing interstitial lung diseases (PF-ILD) at a dose of 200 or 300 mg/day in the INBUILD trial. Although concomitant use of nintedanib with P-glycoprotein inhibitors reportedly increases the plasma concentrations of the former, tacrolimus, a P-glycoprotein inhibitor, is often used to treat connective tissue diseases-related interstitial lung diseases. The optimal dose of nintedanib in combination with tacrolimus for the treatment of PF-ILD with connective tissue disease is unknown. We herein present two patients with PF-ILD with anti-aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase antibody-positive dermatomyositis who were successfully treated with low-dose nintedanib (<200 mg/day) in combination with tacrolimus.
