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

Introduction: Anti-synthetase syndrome (ASS) is a subtype of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) characterized by characteristic rash, myositis, and interstitial lung disease (ILD). The etiology of ASS is unknown, and patients have a poor quality of life and are prone to pulmonary infection. Recent studies have elucidated the potential role of abnormal glycosylation of immunoglobulin G (IgG) in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. However, the pattern of patient-specific IgG N-glycosylation in ASS has not been fully elucidated. Methods: the GlycoQuant method was used to quantify the intact N-glycopeptides of IgG from 30 ASS patients and 30 healthy controls (HCs). Results and Discussion: Thirteen differentially expressed intact N-glycopeptides were identified (p<0.05). Notably, we observed increased fucosylation (p<0.0001) and decreased N-acetylneuraminic acid (p<0.05) in ASS patients. In addition, specific glycosylation patterns correlated with lung function parameters. Our study revealed the IgG glycosylation profile in ASS patients and provided a valuable reference for further investigation of its potential diagnostic and prognostic applications.
