New efforts to incorporate patient-reported outcomes into lupus clinical trials: report of the community meeting convened by the Lupus Accelerating Breakthroughs Consortium (Lupus ABC), 16-17 October 2024.

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.
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
The Lupus Research Alliance formed the Lupus Accelerating Breakthroughs Consortium (Lupus ABC) in 2023 as a public-private partnership with investigators, pharmaceutical companies, the Food and Drug Administration, National Institutes of Health, patient-focused non-profits and professional societies with the goals of developing initiatives to accelerate lupus drug development in a precompetitive setting, and ensuring that perspectives of people with lived experience of lupus are included into the drug development process. Patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures are a top area of focus for the Lupus ABC. To support future work in the area of PROs, a public meeting was held on 16-17 October 2024 with the objectives of (1) assessing the current state of PROs used in lupus clinical trials, (2) developing a roadmap to advance the use of PROs in lupus clinical trials and (3) identifying and setting priorities for efforts to be pursued by a Lupus ABC PRO Working Group. After a series of presentations, small groups addressed what PRO domains to measure, the questionnaire burden for trial participants, how PROs should be selected for trials and what efforts are needed to advance use of PROs in lupus clinical trials.Meeting participants concluded that although PROs are being collected in most lupus clinical trials, they may be underused as primary or secondary/exploratory endpoints. A strong desire to change the focus in trials from disease activity and signs to include PROs, as a way of highlighting patients' voices, was noted. The group concluded that the specific steps needed are to identify PRO measures appropriate for the target populations of interest, incorporate PROs into endpoints for regulatory decision-making, ensure PRO data are publicly available and accessible to researchers and involve people living with lupus in selection of PRO domains, measures and trial design. For these actions, collaborations among industry, researchers, regulators, payors and patients are needed.
