Amiodarone-Induced Leukocytoclastic Vasculitis in a Decompensated Heart Failure Patient: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV) is a small-vessel vasculitis characterized by inflammation and damage to the walls of small blood vessels. It typically presents with palpable purpura and can be associated with various systemic conditions. Although its etiology is diverse, LCV has been associated with systemic diseases, infections, medications, and autoimmune disorders. Here, we present a case of LCV in a patient with decompensated heart failure. A 58-year-old man presented with progressively deteriorating swelling in both his lower limbs and scrotum, a persistent dry cough associated with minor ulcerative lesions on his shins, and a patchy rash with pustules and flat reddish spots. He was hospitalized three days prior due to atrial fibrillation and rapid ventricular rate, for which he was commenced on amiodarone. This rash persisted for three days, yet he denied experiencing any discomfort or itchiness along with it. Based on his clinical picture, laboratory evaluations, and imaging findings, he was diagnosed with LCV induced by amiodarone.
