A Case of Myelodysplastic Syndrome with Intestinal Behçet's Disease-Like Symptoms Treated by Prednisolone and Azacitidine.
Article in The American journal of case reports, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
BACKGROUND Intestinal Behçet's disease-like symptoms are rare complications of myelodysplastic syndrome and are often refractory to immunosuppressive therapies. We described a case of myelodysplastic syndrome complicated by Behçet's disease-like symptoms treated with prednisolone and azacitidine. CASE REPORT A 68-year-old Japanese woman was admitted to our hospital because of persistent high fever and lower abdominal pain. Oral ulcerations developed after admission, and multiple ulcers were found in her terminal ileum by endoscopic examination. She was diagnosed with myelodysplastic syndrome with trisomy 8 by bone marrow examination. Her symptoms diminished after administration of prednisolone, but relapsed afterwards. She began azacitidine therapy and her symptoms have been controlled for at least 10 months. CONCLUSIONS This case might suggest the possibility of azacitidine as a treatment option for myelodysplastic syndrome complicated by Behçet's disease-like symptoms.
