1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Antineutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), though they share similar clinical characteristics, are distinguishable based on specific characteristics. The concomitant presentation of SLE and AAV as overlap syndrome is rare and makes the diagnosis challenging. Here, we describe a rare case of SLE and AAV overlaps presenting with hemorrhagic stroke as initial presentation, which has been reported only once before. The presence of several positive autoantibodies made the diagnosis challenging, but a kidney biopsy provided the definitive diagnosis and aided in initiating immunosuppressive therapy. The patient did not respond to standard initial surgical measures to lower elevated intracranial pressure and showed significant improvement to immunosuppressive therapy proving the temporal relationship. The authors of this case study aim to highlight the importance of considering SLE-AAV overlap in patients presenting with features similar to those described in the case report and intervening early, as delays in diagnosis can be fatal.
