A Rare Case of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Manifesting as Genital Ulcers.
Article in Cureus, 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
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease affecting multiple organ systems. In this report, we discuss the case of a patient with a history of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP), hypothyroidism, SLE, and Crohn's disease (CD) who presented to the emergency room with fever, burning micturition, abdominal pain, and perineal ulcers. Upon subsequent treatment for urinary tract infections (UTI) and negative evaluations for an infectious cause of genital ulcers like sexually transmitted diseases, the etiology of ulcers was found to be SLE. This case report highlights the importance of including SLE ulcers in the differential diagnosis when an SLE patient presents with genital ulcers and the importance of ruling out an SLE vs. infection or non-infection as the cause of ulcers in a former SLE patient.
