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

objectiveThe antibody response against

methodsAt-risk individuals were included in a prospective study (Risk-RA) based on a positive anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide 2 (CCP2) antibody test, and having musculoskeletal complaints but no signs of arthritis. Study participants were followed for ≥3 years (arthritis-free, n=165) or until arthritis onset (progressors, n=95). Anti-Rgp IgG was measured in Risk-RA (260 baseline and 247 follow-up samples) and healthy controls (n=126); anti-CCP2 IgG was measured in Risk-RA (254 baseline samples). Data were analysed in GraphPad Prism and R using log-transformed antibody levels.

results53% of Risk-RA and 26% of controls, p=0.003, were anti-Rgp IgG positive at baseline, with higher levels in Risk-RA compared with controls, p<0.0001. No changes in anti-Rgp IgG levels were observed during follow-up. The anti-Rgp IgG response at baseline did not associate with the development of arthritis; Cox-regression showed an HR of 0.95 (CI 0.80 to 1.13, p=0.6) for anti-Rgp IgG levels, and 0.82 (CI 0.55 to 1.23, p=0.3) for anti-Rgp IgG positivity.
