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

Background: Data on the clinical burden of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) are limited. Objective: We sought to evaluate the epidemiology and clinical burden of EGPA in England using real-world evidence. Methods: Patients diagnosed with EGPA between January 1, 2006, and February 28, 2019, who had ≥1 year of data before diagnosis (index date) were identified using the Clinical Practice Research Datalink Aurum database. Epidemiology, diagnosis, mortality, treatment, and clinical outcomes were assessed. Results: The incident and prevalent EGPA cohorts comprised 486 and 729 patients, respectively. The overall incidence and prevalence of EGPA were 3.04 (95% CI: 2.77-3.32) cases per million person-years and 2.7 (95% CI: 2.5-2.9) cases per 100,000 persons, respectively. Overall, 76.3% and 26.1% of patients had a Five Factor Score of 0 on the 1996 and 2009 versions. In the incident cohort (mean age 57.9 ± 15.2 years), most patients (97.1%) had ≥1 comorbidity; 79.8% had asthma coded. The median time from first major manifestation to EGPA diagnosis was 44.0 (Q1-Q3: 20.0-56.0) months. The death rate was 37.1 per 1000 person-years (95% CI: 30.1-45.2); the standardized mortality ratio for all-cause deaths was 2.3 (95% CI: 1.9-2.8). The 5-year survival rate was 82.3% (95% CI: 78.1%-85.7%). Most patients (86.2%) received oral glucocorticoids, of whom 27.0% successfully tapered. Six months post index date, 26.1% of patients had a new EGPA manifestation. Conclusion: This study emphasizes the substantial clinical burden and reliance on glucocorticoids in EGPA, highlighting the need for improved diagnosis of this disorder.
