Late-Presenting Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis as Cause of Pulmonary Fibrosis: A Case-Based Review.
Article in Mediterranean journal of rheumatology, 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
Introduction: Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (eGPA) is a necrotising vasculitis of small and medium calibre vessels, which affects mostly patients in their fourth to sixth decade of life, and it is a very uncommon aetiology for pulmonary fibrosis. Clinical case: A Hispanic 72-year-old female patient presents with a history of lower extremities pain, paraesthesia, oedema, and occasional macroscopic haematuria. During her hospitalisation, the patient presents, and images showed findings compatible with pulmonary fibrosis and alveolar haemorrhage, which require a biopsy, establishing the diagnosis of an eGPA. Discussion: eGPA is a low-incidence autoimmune vasculitis, with a high number of phenotypes which explain the broad clinical spectrum, but recent advances has helped to understand the physiopathology and its link with other conditions like pulmonary fibrosis. Conclusion: Early diagnosis and management of this condition is mandatory because it is the only factor that change the outcome of the patients.
