1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

VEXAS (vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, autoinflammatory, somatic) syndrome is a recently recognized systemic autoinflammatory disease caused by somatic mutations in hematopoietic progenitor cells. This case series of four patients with VEXAS syndrome and comorbid myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) aims to describe clinical, imaging, and hematologic disease presentations as well as response to therapy. Four patients with VEXAS syndrome and MDS are described. A detailed analysis of imaging features, hemato-oncological presentation including bone marrow microscopy and clinical-rheumatological disease features and treatment outcomes is given. All patients were male; ages ranged between 64 and 81 years; all were diagnosed with MDS. CT imaging was available for three patients, all of whom exhibited pulmonary infiltrates of varying severity, resembling COVID-19 or hypersensitivity pneumonitis without traces of scarring. Bone marrow microscopy showed maturation-disordered erythropoiesis and pathognomonic vacuolation. Somatic mutation in the
