Improvement of Mass Lesions around Coronary Arteries and Fractional Flow Reserve after Steroid Therapy in Immunoglobulin-G4-related Coronary Periarteritis.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Immunoglobulin-G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a multi-organ systemic inflammatory disorder. The ideal treatment of coronary artery involvement in IgG4-RD remains uncertain due to its rarity. We herein report a case of coronary artery involvement with IgG4-RD, wherein mass lesions surrounded the coronary arteries with a moderate stenosis lesion in the right coronary artery (RCA). The fractional flow reserve (FFR) of the RCA was 0.76. After steroid therapy, the mass lesions around the coronary arteries improved. The FFR of the RCA also improved from 0.76 to 0.86. These findings suggest the efficacy of using steroid therapy for coronary artery involvement with IgG4-RD.
