An Extraordinary Case of Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy-Candidiasis-Ectodermal Dystrophy (APECED) Syndrome Misdiagnosed as Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis on Admission.
Article in Case reports in immunology, 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
Background: APECED is a syndrome characterized by autoimmune polyendocrinopathy, candidiasis, and ectodermal dystrophy. The most observed clinical findings are chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, hypoparathyroidism, and autoimmune adrenal insufficiency. Conclusion: Inflammatory arthritis is rarely described in association with APECED and is often misdiagnosed as juvenile idiopathic arthritis. In APECED cases, nonclassical symptoms such as arthritis may occur before developing classical symptoms and considering the diagnosis of APECED in patients with CMC and arthritis is useful for early diagnosis before development of complications and management of disease.
