Neuromyelitis Optica and Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura Treated With Rituximab in a Patient With Combined Neurologic and Hematologic Disorder: 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. 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
Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare autoimmune inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system affecting the optic nerves and spinal cord. Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), on the other hand, is an autoimmune disorder characterized by a platelet count of <100 in the absence of any known condition that could be associated with thrombocytopenia. This case report focuses on a 56-year-old female presenting with the unique coexistence of NMOSD and ITP. A 56-year-old woman of Russian descent had a sudden onset of right eye blindness at the age of 24 and was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. She developed petechial rashes on both lower extremities two weeks before consultation with no associated findings. Cranial MRI revealed multiple nodular and patchy areas of hyperintense signals on T2-weighted/fluid-attenuated inversion recovery without restricted diffusion. A thoracolumbar MRI revealed long segment foci of intramedullary cord non-enhancing abnormal hyperintense signal from T2 to T11. Cerebrospinal fluid aquaporin 4 IgG was negative. A complete blood count revealed platelets of 4 × 10
