Paraneoplastic systemic lupus erythematosus associated with colorectal cancer.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 64-year-old gentleman initially presented with nephrotic syndrome and membranous nephropathy with positive staining for C1q, which was suspicious for lupus membranous nephritis. Investigation led to the simultaneous diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC). The CRC was surgically excised and the patient's nephrotic syndrome resolved. The patient subsequently presented with classic systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) including positive serological markers, mouth-ulcers and a photosensitive maculopapular rash. Two months later the patient represented with an SLE flare encompassing the full-hand of renal-pulmonary syndrome and vasculitic-neuropathy, importantly at this presentation occult recurrence of CRC was proven with tissue biopsy. Major histocompatibility class II haplotyping demonstrated HLA-DRB1*03, a known predisposition for SLE. This case depicts the scenario of tumour transformation triggering SLE development in a predisposed individual after an initial paraneoplastic manifestation in the form of membranous nephropathy (plus C1q). This supports the potential role of tumourgenesis in the development of SLE in a primed individual.
