Kikuchi Disease "A Lupus Mimicker": A Case Report.
Article in Oman medical journal, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Kikuchi disease, also called, Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease or histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis, is a rare self-limiting illness with an unknown etiology and pathogenesis. It is predominantly seen among young females. The cardinal clinical features include fever and cervical lymphadenopathy. Skin eruptions have also been reported. In Oman, two cases have been reported to date, in 2005 and 2020, with only one case exhibiting skin manifestations. There is a paucity of disease in our country and worldwide. In this case report, we discuss the diagnosis of Kikuchi disease in a previously healthy 17-year-old Omani female who presented with fever, cervical lymphadenopathy, and malar rash. The clinical picture in this case resembled that of systemic lupus erythematosus. Due to the rarity of Kikuchi disease, particularly in our region, it is crucial to consider it as a differential diagnosis when a patient exhibits the aforementioned symptoms to prevent misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment, as it can easily be misdiagnosed as systemic lupus erythematosus.
