A case of ANCA associated vasculitis in a patient presenting with chest pain.

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
Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) associated vasculitis (AAV) is a group of multisystem autoimmune small vessel diseases. We report here a case of a 68-year-old woman who initially presented with 29-day history of chest pain, malaise and anorexia. Cardiac problems were ruled out and she was considered to have pneumonia. Her symptoms persisted and blood tests showed renal impairment and evidence of an inflammatory response. A kidney biopsy, chest computed tomography (CT) scan and ANCA testing confirmed a diagnosis of AAV renal injury. She was treated with glucocorticoids and cyclophosphamide (CTX) for six months at which time her kidney function had improved and she avoided the need for dialysis. This case study illustrates that the clinical manifestations of AVV are complex, varied, and prone to misdiagnosis.
