Plasmapheresis for Facilitating Readministration of Rituximab After Paradoxical Exacerbation in Pemphigus Vulgaris: A Case Report.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Rare reports of post-rituximab exacerbation of pemphigus vulgaris (PV) have been published, with some therapeutic protocols proposed for managing this condition. A 40-year-old female with PV experienced an exacerbation of mucocutaneous lesions following rituximab administration. She failed to respond to conventional immunosuppressive agents, intravenous immunoglobulin, and ocrelizumab, so plasmapheresis was administered. Then, further doses of rituximab were prescribed, and mucocutaneous lesions improved significantly. We propose plasmapheresis as a possible treatment for post-rituximab PV exacerbation, also noting that subsequent doses of rituximab can be safe and effective.
