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

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic disease of connective tissue with multi-organ involvement. Manifestation in the nervous system is one of the most difficult symptoms to assess and interpret. The aim of the study is to indicate diagnostic problems in patients with SLE in whom neurological symptoms are present at the time of diagnosis of SLE but also with complications that occurred after diagnosis. In the presented case, the appearance of flaccid tetraparesis with areflexia suggested peripheral damage to the nervous system. In the electromyography performed in this patient, acute axonal polyneuropathy was mainly suspected. Further differential diagnosis should consider other acute and subacute developing polyneuropathies. Guillain-Barré polyneuropathy deserves special attention. To our knowledge, this is the first case documented in the literature of the coexistence of critical illness polyneuropathy and SLE.
