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

Therapies targeting tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα), including etanercept (ETN), have become a mainstay in the treatment of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). As a result, this work seeks to evaluate the relationship between pharmacologic markers of ETN activity and clinical effectiveness in a cohort of patients with JIA. This is a single-centered, open-label, prospective, cross-sectional study of patients with JIA (n = 26) receiving maintenance ETN. Determination of ETN effectiveness was based on the absence of active arthritis in any joint at the time of sample collection. Patient plasma samples were collected and analyzed for ETN concentrations, anti-ETN antibodies, anti-TNFα activity, and TNFα concentrations. ETN was effective in 46% (n = 12) of patients assessed at the time of sampling. No differences in baseline demographics were observed between patients based on effectiveness. Median [IQR] plasma ETN concentrations were 2094 [1384, 2680] ng/mL. Anti-ETN antibodies were undetectable in all patients. Plasma anti-TNFα activity varied 32-fold and was directly proportionate to plasma ETN concentrations (ρ = 0.75, p = 3.8 × 10
