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

rationaleBehcet's disease (BD) is a rare systemic vasculitis disorder that can involve vessels of any size. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 60-year-old female had recurrent painful mouth ulcers about 30 years ago and recently presented with abdominal distension, conjunctival congestion, and chest pain in sequence. DIAGNOSES: The patient was diagnosed with BD according to the International Criteria for Behcet's Disease (ICBD).

interventionsA therapy of glucocorticoids and cyclophosphamide was administered. OUTCOMES: After a 3-month treatment, follow-up examination showed a depression of the inflammation and a slight decrease of the arterial aneurysms. LESSONS: BD patients may get a delayed diagnosis because of the long duration between the first and subsequent manifestations. Suspect patients should be followed-up and the diagnosis of BD should be considered when multiple tissues or organs are involved.
