High resolution computed tomography in systemic sclerosis: From diagnosis to follow-up.
Article in Rheumatology and immunology research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Early diagnosis of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) is crucial in systemic sclerosis (SSc) for both management and treatment. However, diagnosing SSc-ILD can be challenging because symptoms of lung involvement are often non-specific at the early stages of disease. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) of the chest is recognized as the most accurate imaging modality for baseline and follow-up evaluation of SSc-ILD. Key features of SSc-ILD on HRCT include a non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) pattern, with peripheral ground-glass opacities and extensive traction bronchiectasis. Less common HRCT manifestations include usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP) pattern, followed by diffuse alveolar damage (DAD), diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) and organizing pneumonia (OP). The extent of disease on HRCT is known to relate with prognosis and serial assessments can be helpful in monitoring disease progression or treatment response. We discuss the main chest computed tomography (CT) manifestations of SSc, highlighting the role of imaging at both baseline and follow-up evaluations.
