A Case of Suspected Statin-Related Delayed Onset Necrotizing Myositis.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Statin-induced necrotizing myositis is a rare subtype of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies due to the production of an antibody to the 200/100 kDA protein complex which was subsequently found to be directed against 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR). Similar to other auto-immune necrotizing myopathies, the disease is characterized by proximal muscle weakness, significant serum creatine kinase elevations, and histological evidence of necrosis of myocytes. However, there is often little to no infiltration of inflammatory cells noted on muscle biopsy. As the name implies, this subtype of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy is provoked by statin use which may be a helpful finding during the history-taking process when developing a differential diagnosis. Below, we discuss a case of a 52-year-old female with delayed-onset immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy secondary to statin use.
