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

Evans syndrome, characterized by autoimmune hemolytic anemia and immune thrombocytopenia, is rare and often refractory to conventional therapies. In Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), its incidence is approximately 0.47%. We report the first case of anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy for SLE-Evans syndrome. A 36-year-old woman with refractory disease received autologous CD19 CAR T cells (inati-cel) after lymphodepleting chemotherapy. CAR T cells expanded rapidly, peaking on day 7, and remained detectable for 6 months. CD19 B cells were eliminated by day 14. Hemoglobin levels improved from 48 g/L pre-infusion to 115 g/L at day 28 and stabilized. Platelet counts increased from 60,000/µL to 195,000/µL at 2 months. Only grade 1 cytokine release syndrome occurred, with no other adverse events. This case demonstrates that CD19 CAR T cell therapy is a promising approach for refractory Evans syndrome, warranting further investigation.
