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

objectiveTo systematically investigate the rheumatic disease spectrum associated with anti-PM/Scl antibodies and to clarify their clinical significance in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies (IIM).

methodsPatients who were tested positive for anti-PM/Scl antibodies by immunoblotting at Peking University People' s Hospital from January 2016 to December 2024 were enrolled. Clinical and immunolo gical data were systematically collected and compared across the subgroups defined by anti-PM/Scl75, anti-PM/Scl100, or dual antibody positivity.

resultsA total of 422 anti-PM/Scl-positive patients were enrolled. Among them, 83.2% (351/422) were diagnosed with connective tissue disease (CTD), 7.8% (33/422) were not diagnosed with CTD, and 9.0% (38/422) had an undetermined clinical diagnosis. Among 422 patients, most commonly represented by IIM (19.7%), systemic sclerosis (SSc, 14.2%), overlap syndrome (11.8%), undifferentiated CTD (UCTD, 10.4%), rheumatoid arthritis (6.9%), Sjögren syndrome (6.4%), and systemic lupus erythematosus (6.2%), the remaining diseases accounting for 24.4%. Within the IIM subgroup, dermatomyositis predominated (74.7%), followed next by anti-synthetase syndrome (21.7%) and immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (3.6%). Anti-PM/Scl75 antibodies were detected in 52.1% (220/422) of the total patients, anti-PM/Scl100 in 43.6% (184/422), and both in 4.3% (18/422). In the subsequent detailed analysis of the anti-PM/ Scl-positive subgroup, double-positive patients showed a significantly higher prevalence of SSc (38.9%

conclusionAnti-PM/Scl antibodies define a broad disease spectrum encompassing IIM, SSc, overlap syndromes, and UCTD. Dual positivity for anti-PM/Scl75 and anti-PM/Scl100 identifies patients prone to systemic sclerosis and pulmonary involvement, suggesting additive pathogenic effects of the two antibody specificities.
