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

A case of acquired hemophilia A (AHA) that developed in a patient with autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is presented. A 64-year-old woman was diagnosed with AIP in 2007. The symptoms resolved with prednisolone (PSL). Although the dose of PSL was tapered to 7.5 mg/day for maintenance, serum IgG4 levels remained high. She suddenly presented with subcutaneous bleeding in 2015. Her activated partial thromboplastin time was prolonged (80.0 s). A mixing test showed an inhibitor pattern, factor VIII (FVIII) activity was less than 1%, and FVIII inhibitor was 290 BU/mL. She was diagnosed with AHA. Her serum IgG4 was elevated to 133 mg/dL. She was treated first with PSL alone, but she developed bladder tamponade. Cyclophosphamide and activated prothrombin complex concentrate were combined with PSL. She then achieved hemostasis, and FVIII inhibitor disappeared. FVIII inhibitor had been detected since PSL was tapered and AHA recurred two months later. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay showed that the inhibitor was mainly IgG4 and IgG1. This case suggests that elevation of IgG4 may be associated with the development of both AHA and AIP.
