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

Objective: This study compared the efficacy of different doses of filgotinib (100 mg vs 200 mg) in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods: We conducted a systematic review of 4 electronic databases up to January 2025. Primary outcome measures included ACR20, ACR50, ACR70. Results: Five RCTs were included in this analysis, in which 2191 patients with RA were evaluated, 100 mg filgotinib was noninferior to 200 mg filgotinib in the efficacy of ACR20 (P = 0.33, RR = 0.96). However, 100 mg filgotinib was inferior to 200 mg filgotinib for RA when using ACR50 (P = 0.04, RR = 0.92) and ACR70 (P = 0.02, RR = 0.86) as outcome measures. At 24 weeks, 100 mg filgotinib was inferior to 200 mg filgotinib at ACR50 (P = 0.07, RR = 0.84), and there was no significant difference between 100 mg and 200 mg filgotinib at ACR70 (P = 0.54, RR =0.88). The 52-week results showed 100 mg filgotinib was inferior to 200 mg filgotinib at ACR70 (P = 0.01, RR = 0.86). Conclusion: Reduced dose filgotinib (100 mg) may be used as a potential treatment option for RA when treatment is required.
