Absence of Functional Autoantibodies Targeting Angiotensin II Receptor Type 1 and Endothelin-1 Type A Receptor in Circulation and Purified IgG From Patients With Systemic Sclerosis.
Article in Arthritis & rheumatology (Hoboken, N.J.), 2025. 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
objectiveSystemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare but severe autoimmune disease characterized by immune dysregulation, fibrosis, and vasculopathy. Although previous studies have highlighted the presence of functional autoantibodies targeting the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT
methodsQuantitative polymerase chain reaction and cytokine enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, alongside a real-time cell analyzer, were used to assess receptor-specific functional characteristics of purified SSc IgG (n = 18). Additionally, a novel protein capture assay using solubilized epitope-tagged AT
resultsNo evidence for EC activation in an AT
conclusionOverall, our study did not provide evidence to support the presence of AT
