A case of IgG4-related lymphadenopathy, pericarditis, coronary artery periarteritis and luminal stenosis.

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
Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease is an emerging new clinicopathological disorder that is characterized by elevation of serum IgG4 levels and histological findings of IgG4-positive plasmacytic infiltration. IgG4-related disease may appear synchronously or metachronously in a wide variety of organs. The current patient was found to have pericardial effusion and retroperitoneal fibrosis. He was subsequently diagnosed with coronary artery stenosis. (18)F-FDG positron emission tomography showed enhanced FDG uptake in lymph nodes as well as pericardial and peri-aortic tissue. Histopathology of the mediastinal lymph node showed the infiltration of numerous IgG4-positive cells, leading to the diagnosis of IgG4-related lymphadenopathy with pericardial and periarterial involvement.
