Disseminated Chronic Tophaceous Gout With Multi-Tissue Involvement.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2026. 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
Gout is a metabolic condition in which hyperuricaemia leads to deposition of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals in synovial and peri-articular tissues. (1) Acutely, synovial deposition causes a painful inflammatory reaction. Over time, chronic hyperuricaemia can lead to deposition of uric acid crystals in alternate tissues, with granulomatous inflammatory responses forming gouty tophi. Chronic tophaceous gout affects approximately 3% of gout patients and presents as a spectrum from classical nodular tophi to rarer disseminated manifestations such as miliarial gout, panniculitis and ulcerative cutaneous gout. (2) This case details the management of a Maori patient in his 40s, presenting with acute infection of extruding gouty tophi across his lower limbs, managed with antibiotics, surgical debridement and oral urate-lowering therapy. Multiple secondary complications of gout were identified during his care, including involvement of tendons and nerves in gouty deposits (with rare involvement of forearm extensor tendons), early onset polyarticular osteoarthritis with joint destruction and osteopenia. This case demonstrates the widespread effects of this disease and a range of complications secondary to poorly controlled tophaceous gout.
