Anorexia nervosa and juvenile lupus erythematosus in a 16-year-old female patient - common disease origin or random coincidence?
Article in Central-European journal of immunology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Adolescence is a period in which eating disorders and juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus are typically diagnosed. The coexistence of both disorders prompts the search for a common aetiology. In this paper, we present a case of a 16-year-old girl with life-threatening anorexia nervosa followed by clinical and immunological manifestations of systemic lupus erythematosus. The severity of the symptoms of anorexia nervosa resulted in significant delay in proper diagnosis of the concomitant systemic disease which had already been active. The administration of immunosuppressive treatment resulted in decreased lupus activity and resolution of the symptoms of anorexia nervosa.Being affected by one severe and chronic disease does not preclude the coexistence of another disease of different aetiology. However, such coexistence may suggest a common pathophysiology. Many authors have indicated a possible link between anorexia nervosa and many autoimmune disorders. Currently, modern genetic techniques have confirmed a significant correlation between these disorders. This issue needs further investigation and may be helpful in arriving at the final diagnosis in similar cases.
