Rheumatoid Arthritis Veiled by Sickle Beta-Thalassemia: A Rare Immunological Association Delaying Diagnosis.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Sickle beta-thalassemia is a rare variant of sickle cell disease (SCD) that manifests with milder symptoms. Musculoskeletal complications arising from this condition can mimic inflammatory arthritis and hence delay the diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) until irreversible damage has been done. RA has been reported to occur with SCD but there is no documented literature thus far on its co-occurrence with sickle beta-thalassemia. This case report elucidates the etiopathogenesis, clinical manifestations, and challenges encountered with the diagnosis and management of RA in a patient with sickle beta thalassemia.
