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

Background: Joint deformities in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) are most common in children, are not defined in term of angular measurements. The study was aimed to evaluate the joint deformities in angular deviation of the afected joints in JIA patients. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Pediatric Rheumatology Clinic, North Bengal Medical College, West Bengal. The children aged 2-16 years diagnosed with JIA according to the International League of Associations for Rheumatology (ILAR) criteria were included in the study. Patients with co-morbid disease, hemodynamic instability, and other acute conditions were excluded. Angular measurements were performed using goniometer. Results: The mean age of children was (8.05 ± 3.20) years of which 57.5% was male and the disease duration associated with the deformities in JIA. The prevalent subtypes of JIA were Oligoarticular JIA (oligoJIA)(40%), followed by polyarticular JIA (pJIA) (35%) and systemic-onset JIA (sJIA) (12.5%). The commonly involved joint were knee (40%), followed by small joint of hand (32.5%), ankle (30%), wrist and foot (17.5% each), elbow (12.5%) and cervical joint (7.5%). In pJIA, duration of disease significantly ( Conclusion: This study is the first study from India to quantify the angular deviation of deformed joints in JIA. Angular deviation could serve as a valuable parameter for monitoring disease progression across various JIA subtypes.
