Essential mixed cryoglobulinemia type III with leukocytoclastic vasculitis: remission by rituximab.

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
We report about a 39-year-old female patient with severe essential mixed cryoglobulinemia of type III with leukocytoclastic vasculitis. The patient was admitted into our hospital with mesenteric lymphangiitis, which caused enteral perforation, sepsis, and pneumonia. Cryoglobulins, cryocrit, Ig-titers, and biopsy were positive for mixed cryoglobulinemia type III. We detected no signs of hepatitis C, B, or any other infectious disease. At first, disease activity could be kept under control with high doses of glucocorticoids and multiple cyclophosphamide pulses. However, after therapy with three pulses of rituximab, steroids were stopped, and the patient has not presented any symptoms for 2 years. Therefore, we suggest that rituximab affected her disease rapidly and effectively. In conclusion, rituximab is an alternative therapy for mixed cryoglobulinemia of type III with leukocytoclastic vasculitis.
