Autoimmune/Inflammatory Syndrome Induced by Adjuvants (ASIA) after Silicone Breast Implants.
Article in European journal of case reports in internal medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome is a complex condition characterized by various autoimmune and inflammatory symptoms following the exposure to an adjuvant such as silicone. Autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants (ASIA) is challenging to diagnose because it can mimic other autoimmune diseases and requires specific criteria for identification. We report a case of a 35-year-old woman who developed inflammatory joint pain, fatigue and myalgia after receiving silicone breast implants. Symptoms improved significantly after administration of steroids. Based on the fulfilment of the ASIA diagnostic criteria, the diagnosis was made. This case emphasizes the importance of understanding this condition in patients with unexplained systemic symptoms after exposure to adjuvants. LEARNING POINTS: Autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants (ASIA) should be considered in patients with unexplained systemic symptoms following exposure to adjuvants.Steroids can offer significant symptom relief; however, implant removal may be necessary if symptoms persist or recur.Awareness of ASIA can help in early diagnosis, and in improving patient outcomes.
