A Case Report of Behcet's Disease With Thromboses in the Superior Vena Cava and External Iliac Vein.
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
Behcet's disease (BD), also known as Behcet's syndrome, is a rare, chronic, autoimmune disorder of unknown origin. Its manifestations are thought to be caused by vasculitis, resulting in damage to blood vessels of all sizes throughout the body. We report a 25-year-old Pakistani male who is sexually active and presents with a one-year history of shortness of breath, cough, exertional dyspnea, and neck and facial swelling. On examination, he had severe anemia, mouth ulcers, distended neck and chest veins, prominent abdominal veins, and a scrotal ulcer. After going through mandatory investigations to evaluate the presenting signs and symptoms, thromboses were found in the major veins, including the superior vena cava (SVC) and external iliac vein, as well as a positive pathergy test. Accordingly, a diagnosis of Behcet's disease with cardiomyopathy and venous thrombosis was made. He was treated with anticoagulants, steroids, and azathioprine for six months and subsequently went into remission.
