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
IL-17A plays an important role in the pathology of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). However, the pathogenic association between the skin and joint manifestations in PsA is not completely understood. In this study, we initially observed that IL-17A and FGF7 induced endochondral ossification in the mouse entheseal histoculture. Importantly, the responses of endochondral ossification by IL-17A stimulation were strongly inhibited by the treatment of a blocking antibody to FGF receptor 2IIIb, which is the receptor of FGF7, suggesting that FGF7 acts as a downstream factor of IL-17A in the endochondral ossification in the culture. Next, using the animal PsA model, the administration of an anti-FGF receptor 2IIIb antibody resulted in significant suppression of ankylosing enthesitis but not dermatitis. Collectively, our findings indicate that augmented IL-17A in PsA dermatitis induces the elevation of FGF7 levels in joint enthesis and results in a non-redundant role of FGF7 signaling in the development of ankylosing enthesitis in PsA.
