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

Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a rare vasculitis that can cause peripheral ischemia. We present the case of a 49-year-old man who developed PAN causing toe gangrene and severe rest pain in one foot and claudication of the contralateral foot. He was treated with immunosuppression and underwent popliteal-plantar artery bypass with resolution of rest pain and subsequent amputation of his mummified toe. Despite remission of PAN, his contralateral foot claudication was lifestyle limiting; thus, 5 years later he underwent contralateral popliteal-plantar bypass with resolution of claudication. This case demonstrates the anatomically symmetric presentation of PAN induced ischemia with successful open revascularization after resolution of inflammatory markers with systemic therapy.
