Catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome in a young patient: a case report of severe multi-organ and cardiovascular involvement.

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
Catastrophic Antiphospholipid Syndrome (CAPS) is a rare serious form of APS characterized by thrombosis in multiple organs and a cytokine storm. We report a complex case of a 28-year-old female that tested positive for COVID-19 with a medical history of deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolus and systemic lupus erythematosus, with underlying APC, complicating her case of CAPS in multiple organs. Computed Tomography (CT) PE reveled extensive pulmonary emboli and an elevated right/left ventricular ratio (RV/LV). CT of the abdomen and pelvis showed gastritis, ascites and anasarca, fluid accumulation and small bilateral pleural effusions. Urinalysis showed low levels of albumin, urine protein 4+ g, and hyperlipidemia. Laboratory test indicated that the patient has developed a worsening non oliguric acute kidney injury and renal biopsy revealed necrotizing. This is a complex case that contributes to the understanding of CAPS and highlights the challenges of its diagnosis and management.
