Sarcoidosis with a Necrotizing Sarcoid Granulomatosis Pattern Presenting as Persistent Low-Grade Fever: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, 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
Necrotizing sarcoid granulomatosis (NSG), now referred to as "sarcoidosis with NSG pattern," is an uncommon variant of sarcoidosis. NSG is characterized by a trio of features: sarcoid granulomas, vasculitis, and extensive areas of necrosis. Symptoms can include cough, fever, chest pain, and dyspnea, typically presenting as either solitary or multiple lung nodules or masses. In this report, we describe a case of NSG accompanied by a persistent low-grade fever. Unlike the dominant presentation of NSG with single or multiple nodules, our case demonstrated diffuse micronodules with combined perilymphatic and random distribution on CT. Histological examination revealed widespread necrotizing granulomas surrounded by anthracotic pigmentation, alongside necrosis and vasculitis, diverging from the classic presentation of sarcoidosis. The diagnosis of NSG was established through a multidisciplinary discussion. The patient was administered oral prednisolone that led to noticeable clinical and radiological improvement within three months.
