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

Background and objectives: Hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) have overlapping clinical considerations, which frequently involve peripheral neuropathy. The current study aimed to discriminate between the clinicopathological features of HES and EGPA, focusing on the mechanism of peripheral nerve damage. Methods: A total of 53 patients who underwent nerve biopsies at our laboratory were examined: nine patients with idiopathic HES (iHES), three patients with reactive HES, 14 patients with myeloperoxidase-anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-positive EGPA, and 27 patients with negative EGPA. Nerve biopsies were performed using light and electron microscopy. Results: Polyneuropathy was more common than mononeuritis multiplex in iHES, which differed from that in ANCA-negative EGPA groups ( Conclusion: iHES with neuropathy showed a pattern more similar to polyneuropathy than mononeuritis multiplex, which is dominant in ANCA-negative EGPA, and tended to show vasculitis in the peripheral nerves less frequently compared with EGPA. Eosinophilic infiltration and endoneurial vascular occlusion by eosinophils may cause nerve damage.
