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

Subcutaneous fat necrosis of the newborn (SCFNN) is a rare form of panniculitis classically affecting healthy full-term infants. There are a number of predisposing factors including perinatal asphyxia. The condition generally has a benign course with spontaneous resolution, but monitoring for metabolic complications, in particular the potentially life-threatening complication of hypercalcaemia, is critical. The authors report 2 cases of preterm infants with perinatal asphyxia with atypical presentations of SCFNN: the first with bony involvement resembling Langerhans cell histiocytosis and with follicular pseudocarcinomatous hyperplasia on histology; and the second presenting with a huge haematoma requiring surgical debridement. Both cases were initially erroneously diagnosed as pyogenic infections.
