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

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a rare small-vessel vasculitis associated with high mortality without appropriate treatment. Acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has been reported as an atypical presentation of GPA. We report a case of STEMI, shortly followed by subacute in-stent thrombosis with extensive thrombus burden in a 53-year-old male patient with undiagnosed GPA. After aggressive treatment with triple therapy consisting of aspirin, clopidogrel and rivaroxaban, He started to have haemoptysis. Despite the discontinuation of aspirin, he ended up with massive haemoptysis and acute respiratory failure necessitating endotracheal intubation. CT of the chest revealed bilateral ground-glass opacities consistent with diffuse alveolar haemorrhage. Extensive workup revealed positive antiproteinase 3 antibodies; hence, a diagnosis of GPA was made. He was treated with induction therapy consisting of methylprednisolone, mycophenolate mofetil, cyclophosphamide and rituximab, leading to a gradual improvement in his clinical conditions and subsequent extubation.
