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

Pulmonary involvement is common in patients with underlying autoimmune and connective tissue diseases (CTDs) and can encompass a broad spectrum of disorders involving the airways, pleura, parenchyma, vascular system, bronchiectasis and nodules with significant overlap in these pathologies. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is the most common pulmonary manifestation of systemic autoimmune rheumatic diseases and CTDs. Particular diseases, such as systemic sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory myopathies, frequently associate with ILD and high-risk patients should be screened. Antibody profiling and imaging characteristics should be used to prognosticate where possible, along with regular surveillance to ensure therapies are optimised. Immunosuppressive therapies can be effective for patients with CTD-associated ILD, but difficulties arise in distinguishing between treatment failures and complications of immunosuppression.
