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

backgroundVitiligo is a chronic skin disorder with depigmentation of circumscribed areas due to structural and functional damage to melanocytes.

resultsThere is international consensus on the classification in nonsegmental and segmental vitiligo. The influence of vitiligo on the quality of life is significant and is influenced by ethnic and sociocultural factors. There is a new insight into the genetic susceptibility, mechanisms and targets of the autoimmune inflammation, the altered morphology and function of melanocytes and into the association of vitiligo with other autoimmune diseases, skin cancer and skin cancer therapy.

conclusionsThe recognition of associated autoimmune disorders is as important as is the assessment of changes in the quality of life. New insight into the pathogenesis may have therapeutic consequences. The relationship between vitiligo and skin cancer and between vitiligo and immunotherapies in patients with metastatic melanoma warrants close clinical monitoring of affected patients and further scientific studies.
