Premature coronary disease, in-stent restenosis and vascular complications in a young man with Behçet syndrome.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A young man with a history of early-onset coronary disease presented with an ST-elevation myocardial infarction at the age of 38. He subsequently had recurrent in-stent restenosis requiring repeating interventions and ultimately bypass surgery. After 4 years, he presents with systemic symptoms, new skin lesions and a femoral artery pseudoaneurysm. He is diagnosed with Behçet syndrome, a rare systemic vasculitis characterised by the triad of oral aphthous ulcers, genital ulcers and ocular involvement. Behçet is not associated with premature coronary disease but can have a variety of cardiac complications. Additionally, pathergy, an exaggerated inflammatory response to local injury, is characteristic. We hypothesise that in retrospect, subclinical inflammation and a vascular pathergy likely predisposed him to his cardiac and vascular complications. Here, we review risk factors and presentation of premature coronary artery disease and review the literature on the cardiovascular complications of Behçet syndrome.
