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

backgroundTakayasu arteritis is a rare systemic vasculitis, which affects the aorta and its major branches, especially in young females. Diagnosis and treatment for Takayasu arteritis with coronary stenosis are important to prevent fatal complications. Immunosuppressive treatment such as corticosteroid is a common treatment for this condition. However, the effects of immunosuppressive treatment on inflammatory coronary stenosis caused by Takayasu arteritis remains unknown. CASE PRESENTATION: An 18-year-old female had chest oppression on effort and was referred to our hospital due to ST-segment depression in I, aV

conclusionsWe described regressed coronary ostial stenosis in a young female patient with Takayasu arteritis. Immunosuppressive treatment might have a favorable effect on coronary ostial stenosis in Takayasu arteritis.
