A Case of Diffuse Scleroderma Presenting as Hypertensive Encephalopathy Due to Scleroderma Renal Crisis.
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
This case report details a rare presentation of diffuse scleroderma, where a 38-year-old female developed hypertensive encephalopathy due to scleroderma renal crisis (SRC). SRC, characterized by sudden severe hypertension and renal failure, poses a life-threatening emergency. The patient's clinical features, including skin changes and abnormalities on nailfold capillaroscopy, facilitated the diagnosis of diffuse scleroderma. Comprehensive diagnostic investigations revealed multisystem involvement. Management involved angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, hydroxychloroquine, and packed red cell transfusions, highlighting a holistic therapeutic approach. This case underscores the importance of recognizing diverse scleroderma manifestations in hypertensive emergencies for timely intervention and improved outcomes.
