1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease that may involve any organ in the body. Inflammation of the bowel wall as a presenting symptom of SLE is uncommon and can lead to delays in diagnosis and treatment. Here, we discuss the case of an adolescent male who presented with weight loss, intermittent fevers, abdominal pain, vomiting, and diarrhea. Initially, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) was suspected, but endoscopic evaluation did not support this diagnosis. A computed tomography scan of the abdomen revealed signs of serositis, concerning for an inflammatory process and the patient was referred to Rheumatology for further evaluation. Autoimmune serologies were obtained and combined with clinical findings confirmed a diagnosis of SLE. This case advances our understanding of SLE as a multisystemic disease and highlights an unusual presentation involving the gastrointestinal tract, which can mimic IBD and potentially delay the diagnosis and treatment process.
