1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Both POEMS syndrome and IgG4 related diseases are uncommon and clinical manifestations have been multifarious and nonspecific. There is still no literature describing the relationships between these two diseases. This study describes a case of a 33-year-old woman with POEMS syndrome, who had high serum IgG4 concentration and monoclonal IgG4 positive plasmacyte tissue infiltration. This is the first available report of the IgG4 subtype of POEMS syndrome. It is found that the best treatment is to find a novel therapy that targets the plasma cells directly.
