Retroperitoneal Fibrosis Diagnosed as IgG4-related Disease after 35 Years.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In 1982, we reported a case of retroperitoneal fibrosis (RPF) exhibiting various clinical manifestations. Our current understanding of immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease led us to consider it as a possible diagnosis because all of the patient's clinical features could be explained by this disease entity. To confirm our hypothesis, were investigated the histopathological findings of resected specimens that had been stored for 35 years postoperatively. Typical pathological findings together with predominant IgG4
