1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Pulmonary vasculitis can be the manifestation of several systemic illnesses such as primary systemic vasculitis, collagen vascular diseases, and systemic diseases associated with autoantibodies. It may be associated with granulomatous, eosinophilic, lymphoplasmacytic and neutrophilic inflammatory diseases. In this case report, we describe a 22-year-old female presented with intermittent fever, sweating and shivering, haemoptysis, sore throat, shortness of breath, fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea, non-projectile vomiting, dizziness, and dark coloured urine. The diagnosis of granulomatosis with polyangiitis was made utilizing biochemical and radiological tests. Several pharmacological therapies were tried including rituximab. The patient made a good recovery and was discharged home after 12 days of hospitalization. The knowledge of the main radiographic and computed tomography (CT) scan findings, in association with clinical and laboratory data, often enables non-invasive diagnosis of pulmonary vasculitis.
