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

Data from a previous study suggested that peripheral blood monocytes in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may be activated. Therefore, in this study we sought further evidence of 'presynovial' activation of monocytes. Our results show that phenotypic changes are demonstrable in peripheral blood monocytes in patients with RA, including increased expression of CR3 (CD11b/CD18) and FcRI (CD64). However, changes are most extensive in synovial monocytes/macrophages and especially for HLA-DR and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) (CD54). We conclude that monocyte/macrophage activation is most evident within the joint, and that 'presynovial' changes occur but are of limited extent.
