Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis following flu guard influenza vaccination: A case report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Key Clinical Message: This case highlights a potential association between influenza vaccination and the development of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA), prompting the need for increased vigilance regarding vaccine-related autoimmune reactions. While causality remains unclear, clinicians should consider this possibility in patients presenting with EGPA-like symptoms shortly after vaccination. Abstract: Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare systemic vasculitis characterized by tissue infiltration by eosinophils and hyper eosinophilia. We present a case of EGPA in a middle-aged man following influenza vaccination. The patient developed respiratory symptoms, skin lesions, joint pain, and neurological deficits. Diagnostic tests revealed eosinophilia, positive anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies, and elevated acute phase reactants. This report highlights a potential association between influenza vaccination and EGPA.
