Painful hypoadrenalism.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
A 61-year-old man presented with diffuse myalgia and arthralgia. The physical examination showed diffuse musculoskeletal tenderness and joint stiffness without the presence of synovitis or arthritis. Nerve conduction study showed combined mild axonal degenerative and demyelinating change. Muscle biopsy analysis showed unspecific mild muscle atrophy with myopathic changes found on electromyography. A diagnosis of isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency was made on the basis of endocrinological evaluation. The widespread musculoskeletal pain resolved as a result of administration of physiological dose of hydrocortisone replacement. In a patient with unexplained rheumatic symptoms, adrenocortical insufficiency should be considered in the possible aetiology.
