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

This case report describes a novel presentation of a lichen planus and dermatomyositis overlap syndrome. The patient presented with pruritic and painful violaceous erythroderma with biopsy reports suggestive of both lichen planus and dermatomyositis. The patient failed first-line treatment with prednisone and hydroxychloroquine and eventually required treatment with methotrexate and intravenous immunoglobulin to achieve control of her disease. Overlap syndromes have been described between lichen planus and lupus erythematosus; however, to date, little has been described about a dermatomyositis/lichen planus overlap.
