Coevality of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus With Sickle Cell Trait: A Not So Uncommon Entity.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The coexistence of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with sickle cell trait is quite sparingly reported in literature. Here, we narrate the case of a 17-year-old girl from Eastern India with sickle cell trait who presented with acute lupus pneumonitis. The challenges to the final diagnosis of SLE with sickle cell trait were because of the often lesser degree of clinical suspicion at the outset. In this report, we discuss this not so uncommon combination of conditions and review related literature. This girl, who was a known case of sickle cell trait, presented with fever, cough, shortness of breath with subsequent rashes, oral ulceration, high erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and proteinuria. After ruling out infective causes, she was found to be antinuclear antibody (ANA) positive and with stage 4 lupus nephritis. Emphasis should be given to the presence of autoimmune conditions in patients with sickle hemoglobinopathies, including sickle cell trait wherein atypical or systemic involvement may occur. Such association holds more importance as sickle hemoglobinopathies is one of the major hemoglobinopathies reported in this part of the country.
