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
A 3-year-old woman presented with a large ulcerated lesion involving the left upper eyelid and left earlobe with erythematous, swollen, undermined and advancing borders. Culture of the ulcer showed no growth of organisms. Treatment with empiric intravenous and topical antibiotics showed no improvement. Workup revealed an elevated white blood cell count with elevated neutrophil count, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate and C reactive protein and positive antinuclear antibody. A skin biopsy showed a neutrophilic dermatitis with vasculitis. The patient was started on oral prednisone, which resulted in halting of the progression of ulceration and clinically decreased skin inflammation. The skin biopsy and positive response to corticosteroids confirmed the diagnosis of pyoderma gangrenosum. Pyoderma gangrenosum is a rare inflammatory skin condition and rarely presents as lesions of the eyelid. Early initiation of immunosuppressive therapy prevents disfigurement. Eyelid reconstruction in these cases may prove to be difficult.
