[Cryoglobulinemic vasculitis].
Review in Zeitschrift fur Rheumatologie, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Cryoglobulinemic vasculitis (CV) is a rare immune complex disease of small vessels (capillaries, venules or arterioles) with detection of cryoglobulins (CG). These are serum proteins that precipitate at temperatures below the normal body temperature. The laboratory diagnostics are logistically challenging because the temperature of the blood sample must be maintained continuously at 37 °C until arrival in the laboratory to prevent early precipitation of the proteins with adsorption to corpuscular blood components. Cryoglobulins can be divided into three classes (types I-III), with each class associated with specific underlying diseases and symptom complexes. Cryoglobulinemia can be caused by hematological, virological or autoimmune diseases and mixed forms also occur. The most common cause to date is a hepatitis C infection. Treatment of the underlying disease is obligatory, with antiviral treatment of hepatitis C offering the rare possibility of causal treatment. Depending on the severity of cryoglobulinemia, immunosuppressive therapy is indicated to prevent permanent damage caused by the inflammation.
