An unusual case of remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema: Case report and literature review.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema is a rare but well-recognized clinical entity that is easily overlooked due to lack of clinical vigilance. It is classically described as an acute onset of symmetrical tenosynovitis of both upper and lower extremities with pitting edema, mostly noted in elderly population. Young patients with other rheumatological diseases and unilateral involvement had also been reported, but symmetrical remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema in a young patient is a rare observation. We hereby report a case of a remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema in a young male affected by no rheumatological diseases in the past, typically fulfilling the diagnostic criteria and well responded to low-dose steroid therapy. The salient features of the present case in terms of age, remitting seronegative symmetrical synovitis with pitting edema possibly related to undifferentiated arthropathy, reactive arthritis, or diabetes mellitus.
