Primary biliary cirrhosis associated with myasthenia gravis after postpartum: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 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
backgroundAutoimmune diseases refers to a class of diseases involving abnormal immune response of human body and tissue damage caused by the dysregulation of autoimmune balance or destruction of immune tolerance. Recent research has revealed that the occurrence of autoimmune diseases is influenced by genetic, hormonal, immunological, and environmental factors. As sex hormone levels change obviously during pregnancy and postpartum, the morbidity and recurrence rate of autoimmune diseases increase during this period. CASE PRESENTATION: A 31-year-old Asian woman was admitted to our hospital for myasthenia gravis and treated with methylprednisolone and pyridostigmine bromide 3 months postpartum. Physical examination and laboratory inspection after admission suggested that the patient had primary biliary cirrhosis. Subsequently, azathioprine was added to the treatment, and the symptoms of both diseases were successfully controlled.
conclusionsThis case exhibits a rare condition of myasthenia gravis combined with primary biliary cirrhosis postpartum. Given the fluctuation of the immune status during the postpartum period, combined autoimmune diseases need to be taken into account when patients develop clinical symptoms of an autoimmune disease. Therefore, detailed physical and laboratory examination can help to prevent the missed diagnosis of these diseases.
