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

Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is an inflammatory disorder characterized by recurrent fevers, arthralgia, leukocytosis, and a salmon-colored rash. Diagnosis is made based on the Yamaguchi criteria. Various cardiac and pulmonary manifestations have been described in association with AOSD, including acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). We describe the first case of both PAH and ARDS in a patient with AOSD who, despite aggressive therapy, declined rapidly and ultimately died. There was concern for pulmonary veno-occlusive disease given the rate of her decompensation, but this was found not to be the case on autopsy. Treatment of AOSD with cardiopulmonary involvement requires rapid identification of AOSD followed by aggressive immunosuppression.
