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

We report here the case of a 50-years-old man treated for mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) positive for anti-U1 ribonucleoprotein (U1RNP) antibodies who secondarily developed a granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) associated with anti-proteinase 3 anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (PR3-ANCA). We then evaluated the frequency of the association between anti-U1RNP and anti-PR3-ANCA antibodies by a systematic retrospective study in ten European hospitals. Overall, out of 11,921 samples analyzed for both auto-antibodies, 18 cases of anti-U1RNP and anti-PR3-ANCA double positivity were found and only one patient presented with both MCTD and GPA symptoms. Our retrospective analysis indicates that anti-U1RNP and anti-PR3-ANCA antibodies double positivity is infrequent and very rarely associated with both MTCD and GPA. Our observation describes for the first time the coexistence of MTCD and severe GPA in a Caucasian patient. Association of anti-U1RNP and ANCA antibodies was rarely reported in the literature. Eleven cases of MCTD and ANCA vasculitis have been reported to date, with only two cases with anti-PR3-ANCA association, and only one vasculitis. The seven other cases reported in the literature presented with an association of MCTD and microscopic polyangiitis which appears to be a more frequent presentation than MTCD associated with GPA.
