Microvascular remodeling after autologous stem cell transplant in an overlap of systemic sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus: A case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 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
Microvascular remodeling and capillary repopulation can occur after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in patients with systemic sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We aim to report evidence for microvascular remodeling after autologous HSCT as observed by nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC). We describe a rare occurrence of features consistent with systemic sclerosis and SLE in a 33-year-old female with a complex clinical course refractory to conventional treatments, ultimately requiring autologous HSCT. We performed NVC before and after HSCT using optical video and light microscopy. At the microvascular level, morphologic changes in the capillary vascular bed were observed after HSCT. Pretransplant damage in capillary structure was noted as evidenced on NVC with architectural loss, ramifications, capillary drop, and decreased density. Posttransplant NVC revealed an increase in capillary density with evidence of microvascular remodeling. Further studies on the clinical use and impact of microvascular remodeling on disease progression are needed and looking into the application of NVC scoring to assess clinical response would be meaningful.
