Catastrophic Antiphospholipid Syndrome after Orthotopic Liver Transplant.
Article in Case reports in transplantation, 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
Background: Catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome (CAPS) is an autoimmune thrombogenic disorder of small and large vessels caused by autoantibodies against phospholipids and phospholipid-binding proteins. This severe form of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) presents clinically with simultaneous life-threatening multiorgan thrombosis and the presence of two or more persistent antiphospholipid antibodies (APL) confirmed on testing 12 weeks apart. Conclusion: Our patient provided a standard presentation of CAPS with abnormal pretransplant levels of antinuclear antibodies (ANA). Although there have been studies investigating the relationship between anticardiolipin antibodies and lupus anticoagulants and APS, the relationship between pretransplant positive ANA or antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA) and CAPS has yet to be explored. Further studies will be needed to determine the significance of these antibodies. We recommend preoperative APL testing for patients with positive ANA and AMA at preliver transplant presentation.
