Clinical characteristics of a concurrent condition of IgG4-RD and Castleman's disease.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) and Castleman's disease (CD) share similar clinical manifestations. When the histopathology coincides with the diagnosis of both IgG4-RD and CD, it is hard to depart the two disease entities utterly; here we call it IgG4-CD provisionally. In this study, we aim to review the clinical features of IgG4-CD. This study is based on a retrospective analysis of a prospectively acquired database. IgG4-CD was defined histopathologically in patients who fulfilled the diagnosis of both IgG4-RD and CD. Forty-five definite IgG4-RD and 16 multicentric CD (MCD) patients were recruited as controls. Clinical features including organ involvement, serum IgG4, IgG, IgE, ESR, CRP, and IL-6 levels were collected and analyzed. Fifteen patients (2.8%) out of 534 patients with IgG4-RD in China's largest prospective IgG4-RD and Mimicry cohort fulfilled the definition of IgG4-CD. There were 14 males and 1 female, whose mean age was 47 ± 18 years old, and the median disease duration before diagnosis was 12 (1-132) months. Eight patients have allergic disease history. IgG4-CD patients had more lymph node involvement (100 vs 57.8%, P < 0.01), while IgG4-RD patients had more submandibular (33.3 vs 77.1%, P < 0.01) and parotid gland (13.3 vs 40.9%, P < 0.05) affected. IgG4-CD patients had significantly higher levels of ESR, CRP, IgG, IgG1, IgG3, IgG4, and IgE than IgG4-RD patients. Compared with MCD patients, IgG4-CD patients showed higher incidence of salivary gland and paranasal sinus involvement, higher hemoglobin, eosinophil count, serum IgG4 level and IgG4/IgG ratio, and lower CRP, IL-6 levels, and IgG1/IgG, IgG2/IgG ratio. All patients with IgG4-CD exhibited relatively favorable outcomes. Both IgG4-RD and CD can involve multiple organs. There are a small group of patients who had clinical and pathological characteristics of both CD and IgG4-RD showed better clinical outcome. In the long-term prognosis of these patients, the relationship of CD and IgG4-RD is waiting to be further elucidated.
