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

Pyrin is a cytosolic protein encoded by the MEFV gene, predominantly expressed in innate immune cells. Upon activation, it forms an inflammasome, a multimolecular complex that enables the activation and secretion of IL-1β and IL-18. In addition, the Pyrin inflammasome activates Gasdermin D leading to pyroptosis, a highly pro-inflammatory cell death. Four autoinflammatory syndromes are associated with Pyrin inflammasome dysregulation: familial Mediterranean fever, hyper IgD syndrome/mevalonate kinase deficiency, pyrin-associated autoinflammation with neutrophilic dermatosis, and pyogenic arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, and acne syndrome. In this review, we discuss recent advances in understanding the molecular mechanisms regulating the two-step model of Pyrin inflammasome activation. Based on these insights, we discuss current pharmacological options and identify a series of existing molecules with therapeutic potential for the treatment of pyrin-associated autoinflammatory syndromes.
