Intestinal perforation due to hemorrhagic Cytomegalovirus enteritis in a patient with severe uncontrolled lupus nephritis: a case and review of the literature.
Review in Rheumatology international, 2017. 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
A 31-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis was treated with prednisone and immunosuppressants. After her lupus nephritis symptoms worsened, both high-dose steroid and cyclophosphamide pulse therapy were administered. The patient developed an intestinal perforation, and laparoscopic Hartmann's surgery was performed on the sigmoid colon. Serum Cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigen C7HRP was detected, and the patient was diagnosed with CMV colitis and underwent a colon resection. Severe hematochezia continued despite ganciclovir administration, and the patient underwent laparoscopic total colectomy and partial ileostomy. CMV enteritis should be considered in patients treated with prednisone and immunosuppressants and those who have abdominal pain and hematochezia. Immunocompromised patients with intestinal perforation due to CMV enteritis have a poor prognosis. We report a case with along with the results of a literature review.
