Aortic aneurysm and dissection in systemic lupus erythematosus.
Review in Zeitschrift fur Rheumatologie, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Aortic aneurysm and dissection are rare complications of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The incidence, etiology, risk factors, and outcomes of this entity were largely unknown.The study materials were based on the publications of aortic aneurysm or dissection due to SLE published between 2000 and 2017.A total of 36 articles reporting a single case or case series involving 40 patients were collected. The patients showed an absolute female dominance at a mean aneurysm age of 44.6 years. Steroid use was 13.3 ± 9.4 years prior to admission for management of aortic aneurysm or dissection. Aortic aneurysm occurred more commonly in abdominal than other segments of the aorta, whereas aortic dissection did not show any location predilection. Patients with open aortic operations showed a higher mortality rate than other groups; however, no statistical significance was reached. Interventional therapy was minimally invasive, but postinterventional endoleaks were a concerning problem.SLE patients had significant risks for developing aortic aneurysm and dissection. Hypertension, long-term steroid use, and aortic pathological changes related to SLE seemed to be predominant risk factors for the occurrence of aortic aneurysm and dissection. Upon diagnosis, a surgical, interventional, or hybrid treatment should be performed to prevent severe sequelae and sudden deaths.
