Kikuchi-Fujimoto Disease in Human Leukocyte Antigen Partially Matched Siblings: A Case Study of Familial Susceptibility.
Article in Cureus, 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
Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD) is a rare and self-limiting disorder that predominantly affects young individuals of Asian descent. This case report describes familial KFD in partially human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched siblings. An adolescent male presented with cervical lymphadenopathy and elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels, diagnosed by biopsy as KFD; approximately one year later, his sister presented with similar symptoms. Both siblings were found to carry the HLA-DPB1*0202 allele, which is commonly associated with KFD. These cases highlight a genetic component in KFD and encourage further genetic research to delineate the pathogenesis of the disease.
