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

A 73-year-old woman with bronchial asthma presented with a rash and peripheral neuropathy. Since 21 years old, her asthma had been treated with glucocorticoids. Benralizumab had been introduced six years ago, and glucocorticoids were discontinued one year later. Bronchial asthma had been in remission for 5 years. On admission, urinalysis findings were mildly abnormal, myeloperoxidase-specific antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody was positive, and eosinophilia was observed. A renal biopsy showed signs of mild necrotizing vasculitis with eosinophilia. Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) was diagnosed. Benralizumab was discontinued, glucocorticoids were restarted, and mepolizumab was administered. Since then, the EGPA and asthma have not recurred.
