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

backgroundEosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a systemic vasculitis that can have cardiac involvement. Isolated coronary vasculitis as the sole EGPA manifestation is rare. CASE SUMMARY: A 30-year-old man with asthma and rhinitis presented with recurrent chest pain from coronary vasospasm due to EGPA. Treatment included cyclophosphamide, prednisone, verapamil, and nitrates. At the 6-month follow-up, he was asymptomatic. DISCUSSION: Coronary vasospasm secondary to EGPA can be present in younger populations and will present with acute coronary syndrome. EGPA flares can be triggered by viral infections. TAKE-HOME MESSAGES: EGPA vasculitis can present with coronary vasospasm as the sole presenting symptom in young patients. EGPA vasculitis should be considered in patients with elevated eosinophils who have recurrent acute coronary syndrome with coronary vasospasm, especially in those with vasospasm refractory to typical medical management and with known/suspected EGPA.
