Systemic lupus erythematosus in Saudi patients.
Article in Clinical rheumatology, 1995. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Eighty-seven patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) were retrospectively studied in King Khalid University Hospital, Riyadh. There were 78 females and 9 males (F:M ratio of 9:1). The mean age (+/- SD) at onset and at diagnosis were 25.3 +/- 10.5 and 28.5 +/- 10.9 years, respectively, with peak incidence in the 20-30 year age group. Musculoskeletal (91%), constitutional (76%), cutaneous (72%) and renal (63%) manifestations occurred most frequently, while neuropsychiatric manifestations (26%), photosensitivity (26%) and oral ulcers (16%) were relatively less frequent. The most common laboratory abnormalities included ANA (98%), anti-DNA (93%), LE cells (66%) and lymphopenia (70%). There were seven deaths during the study period and most of them were related to renal failure and complications from infections. Overall, the pattern of SLE observed in the series was comparable to that observed in other series among Caucasians.
