Bilateral adrenal haemorrhage in antiphospholipid syndrome and a short review of the literature.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an uncommon autoantibody-mediated condition characterised by acquired thrombophilia resulting in recurrent arterial and venous thrombosis. An inciting factor allows for the exposure of endothelial phospholipids, causing antigen formation and subsequent creation of antibodies. A woman in her 70s presented after vehicular trauma, suffering broken ribs, pneumothorax and incidentally discovered left adrenal haemorrhage. Two weeks later she presented with acute-onset abdominal pain and was found to have a right adrenal gland haemorrhage on CT imaging without interval trauma occurring. The patient had antiphospholipid antibody laboratory studies drawn and was given intravenous heparin with a bridge to warfarin at discharge. Laboratory results returned positive for lupus anticoagulant, beta-2 glycoprotein and anticardiolipin antibodies indicating triple positivity, with repeated laboratory tests positive in 12 weeks' time, confirming the diagnosis. Bilateral adrenal haemorrhage, rather than traditional venous thromboembolism, was the presenting pathology in this patient's diagnosis of APS.
