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

Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP) is a self-limited vasculitis that affects children and the preadolescent population. It is characterized by the deposition of immunoglobulin A immune complexes in tissues leading to palpable purpura, abdominal pain, arthritis, and nephropathy. When it occurs in adults, the clinical manifestations are the same; however, adults present with more significant renal involvement. While abdominal pain is the most common gastrointestinal (GI) manifestation, it can also present with GI bleeding, intussusception, bowel ischemia, and bowel perforation. Here, we report the case of a 22-year-old gentleman who presented with nonspecific GI complaints such as nausea, vomiting, and loose stools. He was later found to have terminal ileitis preceding the onset of rash, the biopsy of which confirmed HSP. Terminal ileitis is a rare GI manifestation of HSP and is not very commonly reported in the literature.
