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 antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides (AAV) are small-to-medium-vessel vasculitis, which includes granulomatosis with polyangiitis, microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis. MPA predominantly affects the kidneys and lungs. Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), a life-threatening condition, rarely occurs with AAV. In this case, we present a 67-year-old female who presented with a sudden-onset headache after a recent diagnosis of ANCA-associated renal vasculitis. Kidney biopsy revealed pauci-immune glomerulonephritis, and serum was positive for ANCA along with myeloperoxidase antibody. A computed tomography scan of the head revealed both SAH and intraparenchymal hemorrhage. The patient was managed medically for SAH and intraparenchymal hemorrhage. ANCA vasculitis was treated with steroids and rituximab, and the patient showed improvement.
