Anti-Ha anti-synthetase syndrome presenting as rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease: a case report of high confidence autoantibody testing.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 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
We report on a 38-year-old patient who presented with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (ILD), without any signs of muscular involvement. Antinuclear antibody testing by indirect immunofluorescence revealed a nuclear titer of 1:320 with a fine speckled and a cytoplasmic titer of 1:1'280 with a fine speckled pattern. Subsequent myositis-specific and myositis-associated antibody tests with commercial multiplex dot-immunoassays showed a strong positive result for anti-Ha antibodies, also confirmed by protein immunoprecipitation, establishing the diagnosis of anti-synthetase syndrome with associated ILD. Despite initial improvement after treatment with intravenous cyclophosphamide and high dose steroids, he relapsed shortly after, with additional muscular symptoms. Subsequent escalation of therapy with rituximab resulted in sustained remission. Considering the scarcity of data about the clinical presentation and prognosis of patients with anti-Ha antibodies, our report provides additional information on diagnostic challenges and therapeutic response in these patients.
