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

purposeTo report and summarize eye manifestations of patients with perinuclear pattern antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody [pANCA, myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA]-associated vasculitis.

methodsThe medical records of four consecutive patients with pANCA (MPO-ANCA) vasculitis who showed eye manifestations were retrospectively reviewed. In addition, the medical literature databases, PubMed and Japana Centra Revuo Medicina for Japanese literature, were searched for pANCA vasculitis patients with eye manifestations.

resultsThree of the four patients treated at the Okayama University Hospital showed unilateral or bilateral scleritis. In the literature review, eight of the 27 patients showed ocular surface manifestations such as scleritis and peripheral keratitis. Other frequent eye presentations were posterior segment manifestations such as central or branch retinal vein occlusion, optic neuropathy, and acute posterior multifocal placoid pigment epitheliopathy (APMPPE). Systemically, the most frequent manifestations were glomerulonephritis in the present patients as well as in the patients reported in the past studies.

conclusionsOcular surface manifestations and posterior segment manifestations were major eye presentations in patients with pANCA-associated vasculitis. ANCA testing including both pANCA and cytoplasmic pattern antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody would help establish a systemic diagnosis in patients with eye manifestations such as scleritis, retinal vein occlusion, optic neuropathy, or APMPPE.
