1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Henoch-Schönlein purpura is the most common systemic vasculitis in children, characterized by IgA deposits in small vessels. The etiology is unknown, but Henoch-Schönlein purpura typically follows an upper respiratory infection, or less frequently other infective or chemical triggers. The classic tetrad of symptoms includes palpable purpura (mandatory criterion), arthralgias, abdominal pain, and renal involvement. However, the cutaneous rash of Henoch-Schönlein purpura is not the presenting sign in approximately one-quarter of patients. Moreover, the other typical manifestations can present isolated or nuanced; for that reason, a prompt diagnosis may be challenging. Other clinical findings such as subcutaneous edema in hands, ankles, and feet, are quite common at pediatric Henoch-Schönlein purpura onset. Edema occurring in other locations (i.e facial and genital swelling), is uncommon, but can be a helpful additional clinical sign of Henoch-Schönlein purpura. To our knowledge, only two cases of lumbar swelling as Henoch-Schönlein purpura presentation signs have been described in literature so far.
