Off-label application of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) for treatment of Cogan's syndrome during pregnancy.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2019. 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
We report the case of a woman with Cogan's syndrome concomitant with the wish to have children. After three major flares of the disease that led to unilateral deafness, immunosuppressive therapy with prednisolone and azathioprine was started. Because of the severe side effects, an off-label therapy with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) was initiated, under which our patient has since given birth to three healthy children. To our knowledge this is the first report to describe Cogan's syndrome with multiple successful pregnancies under IVIG treatment.
