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

Schnitzler syndrome (SchS) is a rare, acquired, autoinflammatory disease that is sometimes associated with a fever of unknown origin (FUO). Elevated alkaline phosphatase (ALP) stemming from abnormal bone remodeling is a characteristic laboratory finding of SchS and is included in the diagnostic criteria. However, its utility as a clue to the diagnosis of SchS has been under-emphasized. We herein report a case of SchS presenting with a FUO and highly elevated ALP concentration, which led to repeated, unnecessary liver biopsies.
