Relapsing Polychondritis in a Patient With Auricular Chondritis and Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Case Report With Literature Review.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Relapsing polychondritis (RP) most commonly presents as inflammation and degeneration of cartilaginous tissue in the auricles, nasal septum, and lungs (in severe instances). RP is a rare autoimmune condition associated with other autoimmune diseases in 30% of cases. The prevalence of gastrointestinal involvement with RP is tenuous; however, there is a growing collection of case studies associating auricular chondritis with concomitant inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. We report the case of a 35-year-old patient presenting with autoimmune pancreatitis, with a past medical history of Crohn's disease, primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), and suspected RP. Although RP is rare, the disease's multiple clinical presentations and recurrent episodic nature can cause significant diagnostic delays and are often overlooked by physicians. Thus, low disease prevalence may be due to under-recognition and under-reporting of disease symptoms. As RP is a clinical diagnosis, increased awareness of the disease presentation and clinical characteristics may increase disease recognition and improve treatment outcomes.
