Budd-Chiari syndrome in Behçet's disease: a retrospective multicenter study.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveTo compare the clinical features, laboratory findings, and prognosis of Behçet's disease (BD) patients with and without Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS).
methodsThis multicenter retrospective study investigated 61 (M/F: 41/20) patients with BD, having coexistent BCS, and 169 (M/F:100/69) BD patients as the control group without BCS from 22 different centers of Turkey diagnosed between 1990 and 2017.
resultsOf the total 61 BD patients with BCS, the onset of the first symptom and the median age of diagnosis were earlier in contrast to BD patients without BCS (p = 0.005 and p = 0.007). Lower extremity deep vein and inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombosis were more common in patients with BCS (all; p < 0.01) compared to the control group. Mortality was significantly higher in BD-BCS patients with IVC thrombosis than in the controls (p = 0.004). Since most of the cases in our cohort had chronic and silent form of BCS, mortality rate was 14.8%, which was on the lower range of mortality rate reported in literature (14-47%). While all BD-BCS patients received immunosuppressive (IS) agents, only half of them received additional anticoagulant treatments. Among IS agents, interferon treatment was more frequently used in this cohort (19%), compared to other series reported in literature (2.3%).
conclusionTo our knowledge, this is the largest series of BD patients with BCS. Our patients had earlier disease onset and diagnosis, higher frequency of IVC thrombosis, and higher mortality rate, compared to BD patients without BCS. Mortality was significantly higher in BD-BCS patients with IVC thrombosis compared to controls. Key Points • Mortality rate is higher in BD-associated BCS patients with IVC involvement. • Chronic and silent form of BD-associated BCS has a better prognosis. • The main treatment options are corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents, whereas anticoagulant treatment remains controversial.
