Rheumatoid Arthritis-Like Symptoms After Taking Relugolix, With Primary Exacerbation After Discontinuation of the Drug.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
We report a case of a 43-year-old woman who developed rheumatoid arthritis-like symptoms after taking relugolix, presenting a diagnostic challenge in distinguishing between initial symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and the side effects of the drug. The patient, scheduled for a total laparoscopic hysterectomy owing to uterine fibroids, started taking relugolix five and a half months prior to surgery. Three months later, she developed rheumatoid arthritis-like stiffness in both hands, especially in the mornings. Despite consultations with the rheumatology department and negative blood and imaging findings for rheumatoid arthritis, her joint symptoms worsened after surgery. Treatment for early-stage rheumatoid arthritis was initiated, and the symptoms peaked after six months. Similar to estrogen-lowering aromatase inhibitors that are known to cause joint symptoms, relugolix might also induce these effects.
