Antisynthetase Syndrome in a Patient with Pulmonary Embolism and Nonbacterial Thrombotic Endocarditis.
Article in Case reports in rheumatology, 2023. 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
Antisynthetase syndrome is a rare autoimmune disease within the subset of idiopathic inflammatory myopathies. The diagnostic criteria include the presence of an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase antibody, and typical clinical findings, including myositis, mechanic's hands, Raynaud phenomenon, unexplained fever, and interstitial lung disease. We describe a case of a 59-year-old male who presented with a 1-month history of progressive purplish discoloration and pain of the fingertips, dyspnea, cough, weight loss, fatigue, and who developed progressive proximal muscle weakness and dysphagia. Investigations revealed pulmonic valve and mitral valve marantic endocarditis, pulmonary embolism, myositis, organizing pneumonia, and elevation of anti-OJ antibodies. He was diagnosed with antisynthetase syndrome and treated with high dose corticosteroids and mycophenolate mofetil with a fair response.
