Plasmapheresis for a Patient with Catatonia and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematous (NPSLE) encompasses various psychiatric and neurological manifestations that develop in patients with systemic lupus erythematous (SLE), secondary to the involvement of the central nervous system (CNS). Although neuropsychiatric manifestations are commonly described in NPSLE, catatonia has been less frequently reported in patients with SLE. The roles of benzodiazepines (BZDs), immunosuppression, therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE), and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) have all been reported in the management of catatonia. Furthermore, another research reported that catatonic symptoms associated with NPSLE were considerably improved by TPE. We, herein, report a case of catatonia in a patient with newly diagnosed NPSLE who exhibited a favorable prognosis through the early initiation of systemic immunosuppressants and TPE. Furthermore, we have reviewed the literature on the role of medication and plasmapheresis (PP), or TPE, in the treatment of catatonia that is associated with SLE.
