Improved rheumatoid digital vasculitis in a patient treated with TNFalpha agent blocking (infliximab).
Article in Rheumatology international, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Rheumatoid vasculitis (RV) is an uncommon but potentially catastrophic complication of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). There are few current extensive studies and no consensus regarding the clinical, laboratory, histologic features and management or prognosis of RV. We report a case of RV in a 74-year old woman with a long (14 years) history of RA, who developed vasculitis of distal arteries with gangrene of digits of upper and lower extremities. After the failure of various immunosuppressive drugs (cyclophosphamide, methotrexate), the patient was treated with anti-TNFalpha infliximab. Digital gangrene healed within four months from the start of anti-TNFalpha treatment.
