[Chronic pruritus in autoimmune dermatoses : results of a comparative survey].
Article in Der Hautarzt; Zeitschrift fur Dermatologie, Venerologie, und verwandte Gebiete, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
As the frequency and characteristics of chronic pruritus in autoimmune dermatoses (AID) have not yet been investigated, the present study aimed at characterizing pruritus in a representative group of patients with AID. A total of 35 patients (80% women) with AID were included, divided into 3 main groups (group 1; n = 19: bullous pemphigoid (BP), pemphigus vulgaris (PV); group 2; n = 9: scleroderma (SSc), morphea (Mo); group 3; n = 7: lupus erythematosus (LE), dermatomyositis (DM). Demographic data and pruritus characteristics were obtained by standardized questionnaires and statistically evaluated by SPSS 20.0. In group 1 (BP/PV) and group 3 (LE/DM), pruritus preceded the initial diagnosis of AID (2.1 ± 7.6 years and 9.5 ± 16.0 years). Patients in group 2 (SSc/Mo) reported pruritus initially 2.8 ± 8.6 years after the initial diagnosis. In group 1 (BP/PV) significantly (p < 0.05) more excoriations and relief by scratching were observed than in groups 2 (SSc/Mo) and 3 (LE/DM). While pruritus occurred as a prodromal symptom of BP/PV and LE/DM, it was only detected once the initial diagnosis of SSc/Mo was made. In contrast to BP/PV, the other forms of AID were associated with mechanically inducible pruritus with dysesthetic qualities. All forms of AID were associated with intensive pruritus which had a significant impact on quality of life.
