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

objectivesOur aim was to explore the effect of a single subcutaneous dose of CAM2043, a novel extended-release subcutaneous formulation of treprostinil, on finger temperature in patients with SSc-related RP.

methodsThis was an exploratory, open-label, single-dose Phase 2 trial. Ten female patients (median age 54.0 years) attended on six occasions: screening, baseline (day 1), days 2, 3, 8 and 15. On day 1, patients received a single subcutaneous injection of 2.5 mg CAM2043. A standard cold challenge test of the hands was performed pre-dose and at 3, 6, 24, 72, 168 and 336 h post-dose, with temperature response over the subsequent 15 min measured by infrared thermography. The primary end point was the mean change in area under the temperature-time curve (AUCtherm) for rewarming (eight fingers) at 6 h vs baseline.

resultsAUCtherm increased 6 h post-dose (mean increase 192.7°C×sec [95% CI: -727.1, 1112.6]) and was significantly greater at 24 h than at baseline (mean increase 1175.8°C×sec [95% CI: 127.3, 2224.3]), returning to baseline values by day 15. Maximum temperature after rewarming increased significantly from baseline at 24 h, by 1.4°C (95% CI: 0.1, 2.7). Mean (S.D.) Raynaud's Condition Score (3.7 [1.3] units at baseline) improved significantly post-dosing, including day 8 (mean reduction 1.6 units [95% CI: -2.68, -0.52]). Adverse events were reported by all 10 patients: all reported erythema and pain at the injection site.

conclusionThe positive outcome indicates that CAM2043 could be further investigated in clinical trials of RP.
