Successful treatment of rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease with filgotinib: A case report on janus kinase 1 inhibition.
Article in Respirology case reports, 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
Filgotinib, a janus kinase 1 (JAK1) inhibitor, is used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). RA-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) is a severe RA complication with no established effective treatment. We report the case of a patient with RA-ILD successfully treated with filgotinib. A 46-year-old woman with RA and RA-ILD, presenting with a non-specific interstitial pneumonia pattern, was refractory to abatacept and prednisolone but responded to filgotinib. Both arthritis and RA-ILD improved significantly, and the patient remained in remission for over 12 months. Basic research indicates that JAK1 plays a role in the cytokine signal transduction in ILD; however, there are no clinical reports on the efficacy of filgotinib in RA-ILD. This case suggests filgotinib as a potential treatment for patients with RA-ILD, particularly in the early stages of this disease.
