Idiopathic Eosinophilic Vasculitis: Case Presentation and Literature Review.
Article in Rambam Maimonides medical journal, 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
objectiveIdiopathic eosinophilic vasculitis has been described in previous case series as a possible manifestation of hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) in asthma-free patients. A rare disease, it can be classified as an eosinophilic-rich, necrotizing, systemic form of vasculitis that affects vessels of various sizes in these patients. This report shares our experience with the treatment of a patient with eosinophilic vasculitis. CASE PRESENTATION: We present the case of a 45-year-old man who suffered from idiopathic HES manifesting as digital ulcers and peripheral ischemia of both the upper and lower limbs without the involvement of other systems. Diagnosis was made after excluding the primary and secondary causes of eosinophilia. The patient responded well to both corticosteroids and mepolizumab, an interleukin-5 inhibitor, as a corticosteroid-sparing therapy.
conclusionOur case of HES-associated vasculitis in an asthma-free patient supports previous reports describing this rare diagnosis of idiopathic eosinophilic vasculitis in recent years. We describe a good response to mepolizumab (interleukin-5 inhibitor) in our patient.
