Atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome in a postpartum patient.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A postpartum patient presented 1 week following uncomplicated pregnancy and elective repeat caesarean section with acute hypertension, severe anaemia and acute kidney injury. Her workup demonstrated microangiopathic anaemia, thrombocytopenia and liver enzyme elevations. Differential diagnoses included postpartum haemolysis-elevated liver enzyme-low platelet (HELLP) syndrome, haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS), and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). She was treated initially with systemic corticosteroids, haemodialysis and plasmapheresis for presumed TTP while awaiting the results of ADAMSTS13 assay performed at an outside laboratory. When reported back as normal, the diagnosis of atypical HUS was established. Eculizumab was administered with rapid improvement of her condition.
