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

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis of medium- and small-caliber vessels associated with the presence of antineutrophil cytoplasm antibodies (ANCAs) and antibodies specific for proteinase 3 (anti-PR3). The interest of this case lies on the fact that these antibodies are directed against myeloperoxidase revealed by the presence of scattered multiple pulmonary nodules. We report a 65-year-old-female patient who presented with a productive cough with mucus sputum associated with a cephalea for six months. The chest x-ray showed multiple pulmonary nodules, first suggesting a neoplastic origin. The initial etiological assessment was non-contributory. A month later, the patient developed pulmonary condensations and ocular signs. The etiological assessment then found ANCA anti-myeloperoxidase (anti-MPO)-GPA. A good knowledge of the clinical and radiological signs of GPA is important to quickly guide the diagnosis that will condition the prognosis of this disease.
