Acute alveolar haemorrhage in hepatitis C-related cryoglobulinaemic vasculitis.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We describe a patient with untreated hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection presenting with pulmonary renal syndrome. He rapidly developed bilateral lung infiltrates and respiratory failure, and bronchoscopy confirmed acute alveolar haemorrhage secondary to cryoglobulinaemic vasculitis. Early bronchoscopy to confirm the diagnosis and consequent institution of immunosuppressive therapy led to excellent outcomes, which otherwise is reported in the literature to carry significant mortality. Therefore, in patients with HCV presenting with bilateral lung infiltrates, physicians must maintain a high degree of clinical suspicion for alveolar haemorrhage secondary to cryoglobulinaemic vasculitis.
