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

Schnitzler's syndrome (SchS) is a rare autoinflammatory disorder characterized by urticarial rash and monoclonal gammopathy which is currently regarded as IL-1 mediated disease. We present the case of a 21-year-old woman presenting with urticarial rash, arthralgias, and elevated inflammatory markers. She has been suffering these symptoms for 2 years and was treated with antihistamines, omalizumab, steroids, and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) without success. After an extensive diagnostic workout, we suspected SchS even without monoclonal gammopathy, and started Anakinra 100 mg daily with a dramatic response and achieving complete remission after 48 h of the beginning of the treatment, so we decided to confirm SchS diagnosis. We performed a search of the literature and found seven more cases of patients diagnosed with SchS without monoclonal gammopathy at the presentation. Five were treated with IL-1 blocking therapies and all achieved remission. We, therefore, prompt the possible role of IL-1 blockade therapy remission as support in diagnosing SchS without monoclonal gammopathy.
