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

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with dysregulation of the immune system. Its pathophysiology is not clear, and it has been reported in association with various inflammatory disorders such as pyoderma gangrenosum, arthritis, familial Mediterranean fever and inflammatory bowel diseases. However, the co-existence of HS and vasculitis is exceptional and has not been investigated. We report on five patients with vasculitis that are followed in our centers: one with Takayasu's arteritis, three with granulomatosis with polyangiitis and one with Behcet's disease and compare them with those previously reported in the literature. A case series and literature review with key words of "vasculitis," "hidradenitis suppurativa," and "acne inversa" found only one previous report of hidradenitis suppurativa and cutaneous vasculitis and two with Behcet's disease. Whereas the association of pyoderma gangrenosum and vasculitis is well-known, that with hidradenitis suppurativa is rarer. There may be some pathogenic continuum between hidradenitis suppurativa, pyoderma gangrenosum and vasculitis.
