Interest of Procalcitonin in ANCA Vasculitides for Differentiation between Flare and Infections.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Procalcitonin (PCT) was established as a biomarker to discriminate bacterial infections from other proinflammatory conditions. Our objective was to determine whether PCT is effective in differentiating infection from antineutrophil-cytoplasmic-antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV) flare. In this retrospective, case-control study, PCT and other inflammatory biomarkers of patients with AAV relapse (relapsing group) were compared to infected AAV patients (infected group). In our population of 74 patients with AAV, PCT was significantly higher in the infected group than in the relapsing group (0.2 µg/L [0.08; 0.935] vs. 0.09 µg/L [0.05; 0.2],
