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

Scleroderma renal crisis (SRC) and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) are rare but severe complications of systemic sclerosis (SSc). We report the case of a 44-year-old patient with SSc who developed SRC and PRES, potentially triggered by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The patient presented with impaired consciousness, renal dysfunction, hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and occipital white matter lesions on magnetic resonance imaging. Treatment included enalapril, hemodialysis, and plasma exchange. This case highlights the potential role of NSAIDs in the development of SRC, and emphasizes the importance of considering NSAIDs as a significant risk factor for SRC in patients with SSc.
