Classification of the vasculitides: are they clinically useful?
Review in Current rheumatology reports, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Several classification systems for the vasculitides have been developed over the second half of the past century. These classifications systems have been modified according to the advances made in the differentiation of these syndromes, particularly their histopathologic features (the vessel size involved) and their clinical features. Although these classifications have been widely used in the clinical setting for the diagnosis of these disorders, they were developed for research purposes. Given the common clinical and, sometimes, histopathologic features of the different vasculitides, a classification system that facilitates a diagnosis and the formulation of a therapeutic plan is still needed. The development and utilization of novel serum markers and new imaging modalities coupled with advances in the understanding of these disorders, may allow the development of a classification system for the vasculitides that will be of greater value in the clinical setting.
