Localised scleroderma and ischemic stroke: case report.

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
Purpose: Scleroderma is a multisystemic disorder characterised by inflammatory and vascular anomalies, and excess fibrosis. Progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS) mainly progresses with skin, joint, lung, heart, and kidney involvement. Involvement of cerebral vessels is rare in both localised scleroderma and PSS. Transient ischemic attack and stroke are rare complications of scleroderma. Case description: We present a 60-year-old stroke patient with localised scleroderma presenting with impaired speech, forgetting words, and occasional temporary memory loss. Comment: In the case we present, no pathology was found in the clinical and laboratory tests performed in terms of ischemic risk factors. Skin findings included contracture, skin biopsy results, and antibody positivity related to scleroderma. Given the current pathogenesis of scleroderma, the patient was suspected of having a stroke.
