Hepatitis E-Induced Worsening of Antiphospholipid Syndrome With Extensive Thrombosis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disease that can result in a wide range of thromboembolic events. We report on a young male who presented with abdominal pain and was found to have extensive splanchnic vein thrombosis (SVT). Incidentally, he tested positive for the following: hepatitis E virus (HEV) immunoglobulin M (IgM) antibody and antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL), including anticardiolipin and anti-beta2-glycoprotein antibodies. HEV-induced worsening of APS is not a commonly documented occurrence. Cases of APS related to infection may be more prevalent than we suspect and infectious workups in patients with a history of thrombotic events could help discover possible etiologies of acute exacerbations.
