Chronic inflammation and calciphylaxis.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Calciphylaxis also known as calcific uraemic arteriolopathy is a rare condition mostly seen in patients with end-stage kidney disease. We report a case of a simultaneous-kidney-pancreas transplant patient with functioning grafts developing biopsy-proven calciphylaxis in the setting of chronic inflammation. Despite several modalities of management, the patient developed progression of her disease leading to multiple amputations. This case illustrates chronic inflammation driven by persistent infection as a probable contributing factor to the development and progression of calciphylaxis in a simultaneous kidney-pancreas recipient. Calciphylaxis should be considered in the differential for a painful, non-healing ulcer even in the absence of common risk factors.
