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

This case report details a rare instance of atraumatic splenic rupture presenting as minimal clotting hemoperitoneum in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) undergoing immunosuppressive therapy. This uncommon complication highlights the potential for systemic lupus to impair splenic hemostasis, immunity, and filtration, posing risks to functional and life prognosis, particularly in cases of sudden, significant hemoperitoneum. While acute presentations are typical, progressive forms may also manifest. Hemostatic splenectomy remains the definitive treatment. This case emphasizes the importance of recognizing the clinical and radiological features of splenic complications in SLE and provides insights into post-treatment outcomes.
