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

Chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection is a rare disease with an often fatal outcome. Cardiovascular complications are associated with a poor prognosis. We herein describe the clinical course of an adult patient with Epstein-Barr virus-associated systemic vasculitis complicated by multi-systemic aneurysmal disease. The vascular imaging showed multiple aneurysms involving coronary arteries, abdominal arteries, cerebral arteries, and vertebral arteries. Immunophenotyping analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes revealed the presence of an increased number of double negative T cells. The patient received multiple lines of immunosuppressive therapy with no response. Unfortunately, he succumbed to a cerebral aneurysm rupture.
