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

Lysosomial diseases and autoimmune diseases are systemic disorders. Their clinical manifestations can overlap with the broad spectrum of one another. Their association has been rarely reported. We report a new case of systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) associated to antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and Hashimoto thyroiditis occurring in Niemann-Pick disease (NPD) type B patient. A 42-year-old woman with a familial history of NPD was diagnosed with a NPD type B at the age of ten. Twenty years later (2008), she complained of inflammatory arthralgia with acute dyspnea. She was diagnosed with SLE (according to ACR criteria) and Hashimoto disease with positive IgG anti-cardiolipin and IgA anti-beta2 glycoprotein. In 2018, she presented a left segmental pulmonary embolism. Antiphospholipid syndrome was retained. She was treated with steroids, hydroxychloroquine, anticoagulation therapy and levothyroxine. Her SLE treatment was re-enforced by cyclophosphamide because of corticosteroid dependence and recurrent hemolytic crises.
