Seroconversion of SSA and the Development of Inflammatory Myositis in a Patient With Chronic Joint Pain: A Potential Overlap Connective Tissue Disease.
Article in Cureus, 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
We present the case of a 48-year-old female with a complex medical history, including chronic joint pain on methadone and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), who developed right forearm myositis following a series of orthopedic procedures and infections. Initially thought to be infectious in origin, subsequent investigations revealed chronic inflammation without infection. The patient's serologic profile evolved over time, with new-onset SSA antibody positivity, positive antinuclear antibody (ANA) and rheumatoid factor (RF), and concern for overlapping connective tissue disease. This case highlights the diagnostic complexity and evolving nature of autoimmune conditions, particularly in patients with non-specific musculoskeletal symptoms and comorbidities.
