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

We herein report a patient with giant cell arteritis (GCA) who developed pneumatosis intestinalis (PI) while she was in a clinically sustained remission phase. A 79-year-old woman with GCA involving the thoracic aorta and its first branches to the posterior tibial arteries had been treated with high-dose prednisolone. Nine weeks after initiating treatment and while in clinically sustained remission with a normal CRP level, PI and pneumoperitoneum were incidentally found during scheduled positron emission tomography-computed tomography, which also revealed slight residual inflammation of GCA. This is a very rare case of PI complicated by GCA, and we discuss the possible relationships.
