Severe Thrombocytopenia as the Main Manifestation of Childhood-Onset Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.
Article in Mediterranean journal of rheumatology, 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
Thrombocytopenia is a common hematologic abnormality of childhood-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (cSLE). Although in most cases thrombocytopenia is mild, severe thrombocytopenia with bleeding complications might occur, and is further correlated with disease activity and a worse prognosis. We report two female patients with severe thrombocytopenia as the initial manifestation of cSLE, which were successfully treated by intensive immunosuppression including several high-dose methylprednisolone pulses and IV cyclophosphamide. Both patients were initially diagnosed with idiopathic thrombopenic purpura (ITP) refractory to conventional treatment and complicated with haemorrhagic manifestations. For this matter, patients with ITP should be assessed for the presence of ANA, anti-dsDNA antibodies, and complement levels, since they are at high risk to develop cSLE.
