Eosinophilic dermatosis of hematologic malignancy mimicking varicella zoster infection: report in a woman with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and review of the literature.
Article in Dermatology practical & conceptual, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 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
Eosinophilic dermatosis of hematologic malignancy is a rare papulovesicular eruption that presents in patients with hematoproliferative disorders, particularly chronic lymphocytic leukemia. A 59-year-old woman with chronic lymphocytic leukemia who developed eosinophilic dermatosis of hematologic malignancy mimicking varicella zoster infection is described. PubMed database was searched with the key words: chronic, dermatosis, eosinophilic, hematologic, infection, leukemia, lymphocytic, malignancy, varicella, zoster. The papers generated by the search and their references were reviewed. The patient presented, on more than 20 occasions, with a dermatomal vesicular eruption. Her oncologist, based on the clinical presentation, treated each episode as recurrent varicella zoster virus infection. A complete workup of the patient not only demonstrated negative viral studies but also revealed pathologic changes consistent with eosinophilic dermatosis of hematologic malignancy on lesional skin biopsy. The recurrence of the patient's dermatosis was less frequent when her malignancy was under better control. Eosinophilic dermatosis of hematologic malignancy may mimic other reactive dermatoses. The morphology of our patient's recurrent dermatosis resembled varicella zoster virus infection. Disseminated zoster virus infection with dermatomal and non-dermatomal distribution should be added to the clinical differential diagnosis of eosinophilic dermatosis of hematologic malignancy.
