Adult Vitamin B12 Deficiency-Associated Pseudo-Thrombotic Microangiopathy: A Systematic Review of Case Reports.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Cobalamin-deficient thrombotic microangiopathy or vitamin B12 deficiency presenting as pseudo-thrombotic microangiopathy is a rare disorder that can be misdiagnosed as thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura. Patients with this condition are at risk of receiving unnecessary plasmapheresis with a potential delay in appropriate therapy with vitamin B12 supplementation. There are no established diagnostic criteria for this condition in clinical practice. We performed a systematic review of case reports published between January 2018 and January 2023 to analyze the clinical characteristics, risk factors, and patterns of laboratory markers to improve the diagnostic criteria for this condition.
