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

Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is an important complication seen in systemic for juvenile rheumatoid arthritis; until now, it has been reported in only a few cases of adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD). Here, we shall present a 50-year-old female patient who was using steroids and antimalarial drugs for AOSD, and who developed MAS during follow-up. The patient presented with febrile neutropenia, and the neutropenic period lasted for 15 days. The examination of bone marrow aspiration smears demonstrated increased macrophages and findings of hemophagocytosis. Flow cytometric analysis of peripheral blood showed decreased natural killer cells. The patient developed neurologic findings during this period, and during the recovery of neutropenia, she had icterus and liver function test abnormalities. The patient was given granulocyte colony-stimulating factor during neutropenic period, and her neutropenia improved after the administration of high-dose steroids. Our patient was the first AOSD patient who presented with febrile neutropenia during the course of her disease and who was diagnosed to have MAS.
