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

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a systemic rheumatic disease characterized by necrotizing vasculitis in the small vessels with eosinophilic inflammation. EGPA involves multiple organs, such as the heart, lungs, kidneys, gastrointestinal tract, nerves, and ophthalmic organs. Ophthalmic involvement includes conjunctival nodules, orbital myositis, orbital inflammatory syndrome, dacryoadenitis, and cranial nerve palsy. Notably, conjunctival nodules in patients with EGPA are very rare lesions but may present with atypical eyelid swelling. Herein, we present a case of EGPA with bilateral conjunctival nodules that developed during treatment with Interleukin (IL)-5 inhibitors. This case highlights that EGPA may exhibit bilateral conjunctival lesions even during treatment with IL-5 inhibitors, suggesting incomplete suppression of
