Intestinal perforation as a first presentation of granulomatosis with polyangiitis: unusual case report.
Article in Oxford medical 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
introductionGranulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) vasculitis typically involves upper and lower airways and kidneys. Gastrointestinal involvement is rare, clinically reported as esophageal involvement, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, intestinal perforation, colitis, and pancreatitis. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a 36 old man, with intestinal perforation, laterally diagnosed as granulomatosis with polyangiitis. DISCUSSION: Only a few cases of intestinal perforation have been reported in the medical literature. GI symptoms may be present after the disease diagnosis in years. Intestinal perforation usually required surgery. The frequent kidney involvement of GPA is rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, presented as acute kidney injury, usually accompanied by GI symptoms. Cyclophosphamide plus corticosteroids remain the effective therapy. The patient with GPA had a normal life expectancy due to the advances in treatment. Renal involvement and GI manifestations are considered bad prognosis predictors.
conclusionThis case report illustrates the need to consider intestinal perforation in patients with granulomatosis with polyangiitis, early surgical intervention and appropriate immunosuppressive therapy can be lifesaving.
