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

Catatonia is a rare neuropsychiatric syndrome that has been exceptionally described as the initial manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We report the case of a 32-year-old woman who presented with severe catatonia, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, and lupus hepatitis as the first expression of SLE. Positive ANA, anti-SM, and anti-ribosomal P antibodies, elevated anti-dsDNA with low complement, and a SLEDAI-2 K score of 8 supported the diagnosis. Antiphospholipid antibodies were negative. The patient received high-dose corticosteroids, cyclophosphamide, hydroxychloroquine, and lorazepam, with marked improvement after three days and complete recovery within two weeks, remaining relapse-free during follow-up. This case emphasizes the importance of considering catatonia as an initial manifestation of neuropsychiatric SLE and highlights the diagnostic relevance of anti-ribosomal P antibodies in such presentations.
