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

Leukocytoclastic vasculitis is a neutrophilic angiitis with diverse etiologies, including both inflammatory and neoplastic conditions, such as anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) and multiple myeloma (MM). Skin involvement in MM is rare, occurring in less than 1% of cases. We present a case of a patient with retiform purpura and peripheral neuropathy in the lower limbs, secondary to IgG lambda MM, which mimicked AAV. Skin manifestations in MM can appear as the initial symptom or at any stage of the disease. This case highlights the critical role of protein electrophoresis in the initial evaluation of patients with systemic inflammatory conditions.
