Janus Kinase inhibitors in the treatment of large vessel vasculitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Open medicine (Warsaw, Poland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: This meta-analysis evaluates Janus Kinase (JAK) inhibitors' efficacy and safety in large vessel vasculitis (LVV), encompassing Giant Cell Arteritis (GCA) and Takayasu's Arteritis (TAK). Methods: Registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024575313), four databases were systematically searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies. Outcomes included remission/relapse rates and adverse events, assessed with sensitivity/publication bias analyses. Results: Five studies (107 patients: 65 GCA, 42 TAK) showed pooled 12-month remission rates of 80.1 % (95 % CI: 68.3-92.0), with subgroup rates of 87.3 % (GCA) and 69.6 % (TAK). Relapse rates were 11.3 % overall (2.5 % GCA vs. 22.9 % TAK). Adverse event-related discontinuation was 4.4 %, with subgroup rates of 4.0 % (GCA) and 4.2 % (TAK). Conclusions: JAK inhibitors demonstrate favorable efficacy and safety in LVV.
