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

We present a case of a female child who had developed progressive skin tightening of whole body, sclerodactyly, and severe contracture of all joints with restricted opening of mouth with disease onset at 6 weeks of life. The child also had anemia, failure to thrive, recurrent diarrhea, and ascites. Skin biopsy revealed characteristic histopathological features suggestive of scleroderma. Echocardiography revealed thrombus in the right atrium extending to inferior vena cava. Serological markers (antinuclear antibody, antiscl 70, anti-double-stranded DNA, anticentromere antibody) were negative. To our knowledge, this case of scleroderma with disease onset at 6 weeks of life could possibly be among youngest cases reported in the literature. Also, thrombosis in inferior vena cava in a child with scleroderma is being reported for the first time.
