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

A 40-year-old Japanese woman developed malignant-phase hypertension complicated by thrombotic microangiopathy, progressing to end-stage renal disease. Five years later, she was diagnosed with pulmonary arterial hypertension and interstitial pneumonia. Despite a lack of overt skin sclerosis, nucleolar staining in our indirect immunofluorescence analysis and nailfold capillaroscopy facilitated the diagnosis of anti-PM/Scl antibody-positive systemic sclerosis. We observed the persistent presence of anti-PM/Scl antibodies throughout the clinical course, suggesting that her kidney disease was scleroderma renal crisis. Anti-PM/Scl antibodies can be associated with multiple organ diseases. Careful attention to a patient's antinuclear antibody pattern and dermatological findings may help clarify the etiology of undiagnosed diseases.
