Takayasu Arteritis Complicated by Superior Mesenteric Artery Stenosis and Bilateral Renal Arteritis: A Clinical Case Report.
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
Takayasu arteritis (TA), a rare large-vessel vasculitis, primarily affects women of childbearing age, causing granulomatous inflammation in the aorta and its major branches. This inflammation can lead to stenosis, aneurysms, or occlusion, with the abdominal aorta, subclavian, and brachial arteries commonly involved. We present the case of a 26-year-old female with TA with a rare involvement of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA). The patient presented with progressive shortness of breath and exertional pain in the left upper limb, suggesting claudication. Echocardiography showed an ejection fraction of 45% and right ventricular systolic pressure of 65 mmHg. CT angiography (CTA) revealed diffuse involvement of the abdominal aorta with non-opacification of SMA, and other findings were consistent with TA type 5. The patient was successfully treated with methylprednisolone to induce remission, along with guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure.
