Catastrophic Antiphospholipid Syndrome and Renal Failure: An Unexpected Recovery After Three Years on Dialysis.

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
Catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome (CAPS) is a rare and life-threatening disorder characterised by arterial or venous thrombotic events, involving three or more organs in a short period of time, in the presence of persistent antiphospholipid antibodies. Long-term anticoagulation with warfarin is the standard of care to prevent recurrent vascular events. Besides supportive care, optimal management of CAPS is unclear and consensus among experts is lacking. We describe a patient with primary antiphospholipid syndrome who experienced probable CAPS after receiving rivaroxaban, resulting in extensive cutaneous ulceration, acute coronary syndrome and dialysis-dependent renal failure. Anticoagulation, glucocorticoids and plasmapheresis were started. In the haemodialysis period, he maintained treatment with long-term vitamin K antagonist. The international normalized ratio target was optimized to 3.5-4. This strategy was associated with the healing of skin lesions, regression of cardiac lesions and recovery of renal function after three years on dialysis.
