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

Immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy is a subtype of immune-mediated myopathy associated with or without statin use. Statins, or HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, are the most prescribed medications for dyslipidemia. The statin-associated myopathic syndromes range from asymptomatic elevations in creatine kinase to severe debilitating muscle weakness with associated rhabdomyolysis and elevated liver enzymes. Clinical improvement occurs upon discontinuation of statins, but some patients do not recover completely. Diagnostic tests include electromyography, muscle biopsy, myositis autoantibody panel, and antibodies against the HMGCR. Here, we present a case of anti-HMGCR-related myopathy associated with atorvastatin.
