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

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease marked by chronic inflammation and destruction of joints and surrounding soft tissues. The pathogenesis of RA is heavily driven by two intertwined and mutually regulatory processes: metabolic reprogramming and epigenetic remodeling. Recent advances reveal a crucial crosstalk wherein metabolic intermediates derived from immune cells act as substrates or cofactors for chromatin-modifying enzymes. This interplay profoundly shapes epigenetic landscapes, thereby exacerbating inflammatory responses and disease progression. Here, we review the mechanisms underlying immune cell metabolic reprogramming in RA and critically examine how metabolite-mediated epigenetic remodeling orchestrates disease pathology. Furthermore, we summarize state-of-the-art epigenetic-targeted therapeutic strategies, offering new insights and a solid theoretical basis for treating RA through the metabolic-epigenetic axis.
