Granulomatosis With Polyangiitis in Untreated Graves' Disease: A Rare Event.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Antithyroid medications can cause antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) vasculitis. However, no literature in English describes the coexistence of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) and untreated Graves' disease. We present a 19-year-old female with thyroid storm and additional complaints of cough, hemoptysis, nasal discharges, polyarthralgia, and skin lesions. Imaging showed peri-hilar cavities and acute-on-chronic sinusitis. Elevated cytoplasmic pattern antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (C-ANCA) and anti-proteinase-3 antibody levels plus histopathology of the nasal and skin biopsies suggested GPA. Propranolol, methimazole, and potassium-iodide resolved the thyroid storm. Induction therapy (steroids, rituximab) for GPA provided relief of chronic symptoms stressing the importance of early recognition and swift initiation of treatment.
