Overview of infections as an etiologic factor and complication in patients with vasculitides.
Review in Rheumatology international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers.
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
Vasculitides, a form of inflammatory autoimmune disease targeting the vessels, constitute an entity with significant morbidity and mortality. Infections have long been associated with vasculitides as a result of the incident immunosuppression following treatment induction and maintenance. Several microbial pathogens have been described as etiologic factors of infections in this patient population according to the type of vessels affected. Intense research has also been recently conducted in the interplay between vasculitides and certain viral infections, namely human immunodeficiency virus and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. Of note, a plethora of scientific evidence is available regarding the role of infections as triggering factors for vasculitides. Among the main mechanisms implicated in this direction are the activation of B and T cells, the direct endothelial insult, the immune complex-mediated vascular injury, and the cell-mediated, type IV hypersensitivity vessel damage. Therefore, this review aims to summarize all the available evidence concerning this bidirectional interplay between infections and vasculitides.
