Severe Mononeuritis Multiplex due to Rheumatoid Vasculitis in Rheumatoid Arthritis in Sustained Clinical Remission for Decades.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Rheumatoid vasculitis (RV) usually occurs in patients with refractory rheumatoid arthritis (RA). An 80-year-old woman was transferred to our hospital because of muscle weakness and paresthesia in all 4 limbs. She had been diagnosed with RA 30 years ago and achieved sustained clinical remission. At presentation, polyarthritis and drop foot were observed, and rheumatoid factor was prominently elevated. A peripheral nerve conduction test revealed mononeuritis multiplex in her limbs. We suspected that RV had developed rapidly despite RA having been stable for many years and started immunosuppression therapy with steroids combined with azathioprine. The treatment prevented worsening of muscle weakness and paresthesia.
