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

Sweet's syndrome (SS) is an acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis characterized by a rash with tender erythematous plaques or nodules, fevers and leukocytosis. Drug-induced SS is a subtype of SS which is associated with a growing number of medications including azathioprine (AZA). Cardiovascular complications secondary to SS are rare but have been described in case reports and include myocardial infarction and myopericarditis. We report a man in his 60's with left-sided colonic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and perianal disease who developed SS 3 weeks post commencement of AZA. His admission was complicated by an inferolateral ST elevation myocardial infarction occurring concurrently with SS. Clinical improvement occurred with AZA cessation and introduction of intravenous steroids.
