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

objectiveMultinational research is essential to improve recognition and management of systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (sJIA). Current cohorts vary in the clinical variables and outcome measures collected. Adult-onset Still disease (AOSD) and sJIA are widely considered to comprise a single disease spectrum; however, classification criteria and clinical tools differ between groups. This systematic literature review aimed to identify clinical features and outcome measures collected across sJIA and AOSD cohorts worldwide to guide the development of a minimal dataset for Still disease.

methodsA literature search was conducted from 2000 to 2024 using Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, and Wiley Cochrane Library (Trials). Included articles were in English and described sJIA or AOSD cohorts of ≥ 20 patients, reporting patient characteristics, clinical and laboratory features, and outcome measures.

resultsA total of 240 articles were included (95 sJIA, 134 AOSD, 11 mixed), from 37 countries, describing 23,136 patients. International League of Associations for Rheumatology classification was used in 77.9% of sJIA studies, whereas 98.5% of AOSD studies used Yamaguchi criteria. There was no clear consensus on the definition of macrophage activation syndrome. Race and ethnicity were only reported in 11.7% of articles. Cohorts evaluated aligned on the most commonly collected laboratory items for both AOSD and sJIA, with some agreement among clinical features, whereas disease outcome measures used to evaluate and follow disease trajectory were variable.

conclusionData reporting across sJIA and AOSD cohorts for clinical characteristics and outcome measures is widely heterogeneous. Consensus on the identification of a standardized minimal dataset for Still disease cohorts is needed to foster future collaboration and improve patient outcomes.
