Lupus Cerebritis as a Rare Neuropsychiatric Manifestation of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.
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, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) is a rare autoimmune condition that shows an overlap of at least two connective tissue diseases (CTD) including systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), scleroderma, Sjögren's syndrome, polymyositis, or dermatomyositis. From a laboratory standpoint, MCTD is associated with high titers of anti-U1-RNP antibodies, which makes it difficult to determine whether it is a variant of each of the respective CTDs or a different entity altogether. Our objective is to report the case of a patient with MCTD presenting with status epilepticus who was ultimately diagnosed with lupus cerebritis. The case also highlights the development of complications unrelated to MCTD that made the management even more challenging. Overall, the authors emphasize the rareness of lupus cerebritis as a presentation, the diagnostic challenges faced due to the lack of classical manifestations of SLE, and how the complicated clinical course makes a downhill prognosis more likely.
