Rare manifestations of sarcoidosis in a young boy.

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
Sarcoidosis is a chronic multisystem granulomatous disease of unknown etiology. It is rare in young children. A 9-year-old boy presented with failure to thrive, skin rashes, persistent fever, and respiratory symptoms since 5 years of age. Blood investigations done showed elevated serum calcium and angiotensin converting enzyme levels and biopsy of the rashes on the left shin revealed non-caseating granulomatous lesion. Computed tomography of chest revealed interstitial lung disease and examination of eyes showed bilateral uveitis. He also had sensorineural hearing impairment, nephrocalcinosis, and short stature. The patient was treated with oral steroids and mycophenolate mofetil. At follow up, there was improvement in his systemic features including rashes and arthritis. Early detection, diagnosis, and appropriate treatment of sarcoidosis are vital for disease control and to avoid morbidity.
