Rheumatoid Arthritis-Associated Interstitial Lung Disease Presenting With Raynaud's Phenomenon: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) is a recognized extra-articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis. Pulmonary involvement may occasionally precede overt articular disease, creating diagnostic challenges. A patient presented with breathlessness for 2-3 months and joint pain of similar duration, along with bluish discoloration of the left middle finger, suggestive of Raynaud's phenomenon. Respiratory examination revealed bilateral inspiratory crepitations in the infrascapular and infra-axillary areas. Rheumatoid factor was positive, while antinuclear antibody was negative. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the thorax demonstrated microcystic honeycombing, basal subpleural fibrosis, and traction bronchiectasis, consistent with a usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern. This case highlights ILD as a potential early manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis and emphasizes the importance of autoimmune evaluation in patients presenting with fibrotic ILD and systemic features such as Raynaud's phenomenon.
