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

Granulomatous polyangiitis (GPA) is a small vessel vasculitis commonly affecting the upper and lower respiratory tracts and kidneys. About 90% of the cases are associated with ANCA, namely, PR3-ANCA and MPO-ANCA. Herein, we describe a patient of GPA who presented with anasarca, sensory neuropathy, recurrent upper airway congestion, epistaxis, and rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis. Granulomatous interstitial nephritis and necrotizing granulomatous inflammation of the nasal septum were found on biopsy of the kidney and nasal septum, respectively both of which are rare findings. PR3-ANCA and MPO-ANCA were negative. Fulfilling the ACR criteria, this case of GPA proves that biopsy is still the gold standard of diagnosis.
