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

Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a systemic autoimmune disorder characterized by chronic inflammation of exocrine glands, resulting in lacrimal gland dysfunction, reduced tear secretion and dry eye manifestations. The nuclear factor κB (NF‑κB) signaling pathway is a central regulator of inflammatory responses; however, its role in lacrimal gland injury in pSS remains incompletely defined. The present study investigated the contribution of NF‑κB signaling to lacrimal gland damage and tear secretion in non‑obese diabetic (NOD)/Ltj mice, an established
