Hypocomplementemic Urticarial Vasculitis Syndrome or Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in Evolution?
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Hypocomplementemia urticarial vasculitis syndrome (HUVS) is a rare form of systemic vasculitis which is characterized by the presence of urticaria and hypocomplementemia. The presence of recurrent and chronic urticarial rash is the dominant clinical finding in HUVS. Other manifestations including angioedema, arthritis, gastrointestinal symptoms, ocular inflammation, pulmonary involvement, renal involvement, and central nervous system involvement are also seen. Although the pathophysiology of HUVS is yet to be fully understood, it has been demonstrated that immune complex-mediated injury is the predominant mechanism responsible for severe systemic manifestations; a mechanism of injury similar to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). HUVS shared many clinicopathological features with SLE and it is prudent to question whether HUVS is a separate disease entity or SLE in evolution. Herein we present a case of a male patient who was diagnosed with SLE a year after being diagnosed with HUVS.
