Digital ischemia in Behçet's disease: case-based review.
Review in Rheumatology international, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Behçet's disease is a rare chronic autoimmune disease affecting primarily Middle and East Asian populations between the ages of 20 and 40 years. Behçet's disease manifests with oral and genital mucocutaneous lesions, ocular disease, venous thrombosis, and central nervous system degradation. Treatment can be challenging and may require immunosuppressive agents and/or topical wound-care. While larger vascular involvement has been reported, digital ischemia due to small-vessel involvement has not been well described in the literature. Based on a systematic literature review, we were only able to find seven published cases of limb ischemia, none of which reported digital involvement. We present a unique case of Behçet's disease with severe digital ischemia and ulceration caused by small-vessel involvement. The patient was managed successfully with antiplatelet, immunosuppressants, and anti-inflammatories with complete resolution of the ischemic symptoms. By focusing on small-vessel involvement and digital ischemia, we provide insight into clinical presentation and treatment for this very rare vascular manifestation of Behçet's disease.
